AUSTRIAN POTATO SALAD



Austrian Potato Salad image

Austrian potato salad is lighter than American potato salad since it's made without mayo. It has a vinegar base and is flavored with onions, broth, and mustard. This potato salad is a traditional side dish for Schnitzel.

Yield 6 servings (side dish)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs waxy potatoes (1 kg), all about the same size, rather small to medium ones
1 medium yellow onion, diced finely (1 cup / 3 ½ oz / 100 g)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (28 g)
1/3 cup white wine vinegar or mellow apple vinegar (80 ml)
¾ cup + 1 tablespoon vegetable broth (200 ml)
¾ tablespoon tarragon mustard (substitute with savory-hot mustard like spicy brown if you can not find)
5 ½ tablespoons sunflower oil (substitute neutral-tasting oil) (80 ml / 72 g)
1 teaspoon table salt (8 g)
chopped, flat parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • Simmer the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and can be easily pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes and set aside to cool slightly.
  • When potatoes are cool enough to handle but still warm, peel and cut them into thin slices (not thicker than 1/8 inch). Set aside in a big bowl.
  • Heat butter in a pan over medium heat, add diced onion and cook until translucent, 3-4 minutes.
  • Deglaze onion with vinegar, add soup and salt.
  • Bring the liquid to a boil and let it cook over low medium heat for 2 minutes.
  • Toss the potatoes with vinegar-broth, add mustard, give it a stir, then add oil and mix carefully.
  • Cover bowl with a lid and let rest for at least 30 minutes so the potatoes are able to absorb some of the dressing.
  • Potato salad is consumed either warm (after the 30 minute resting time) or chilled (for longer resting times).
  • Before serving, give the salad a stir, taste it, add little salt if necessary and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

8 ounces boneless sirloin (1 1/2-inches thick) or other well-priced steak
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
6 medium red potatoes, quartered
1/4 cup grape tomatoes, halved
1 head red leaf lettuce, washed, dried and leaves torn into bite-size pieces
1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Sour Cream-Bacon Dressing, recipe follows
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 strips bacon, cooked until crisp and then chopped
2 green onions, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Drizzle the steak with vegetable oil and very liberally, season the steak with salt and pepper, to taste. Let the steak sit out at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and heat the grill to hot.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, olive oil, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Lay the potatoes on a baking sheet and toss with the garlic-infused oil. Roast the potatoes for 18 minutes, or until deep golden, turning halfway through. Set the potatoes aside.
  • Place the seasoned steak on the hot grill and grill the steak until an instant-read thermometer reads 125 degrees F for medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the steak from the grill and let rest under tented foil.
  • To assemble the salad: Divide the lettuce among 4 plates. Sprinkle on the halved tomatoes. Divide the warm potatoes among the plates. Drizzle with the Sour Cream-Bacon Dressing. Slice the steak thinly on the bias and fan on top. Top the salad with the shredded Cheddar cheese.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, vinegar, sour cream, and garlic powder. Drizzle in the oil and bacon fat to emulsify. Whisk in the chopped bacon, green onions, and season with salt, and pepper, to taste, if necessary.

AUSTRIAN-STYLE POTATO SALAD (COOK'S ILLUSTRATED)



Austrian-Style Potato Salad (Cook's Illustrated) image

For a creamy and light potato salad recipe, do as the Austrians do: Ditch the mayo and look to the soup pot. Simmering the potatoes in a shallow pan with vegetable stock, water, sugar, and salt yielded deeply flavored potatoes. Yukon Golds have just enough starch to contribute creaminess without breaking apart. To finish, the recipe calls for adding mashed potatoes to the dressing, which thicken it perfectly every time. The finished salad should be creamy and loose, with chunks of potato that keep their shape but are very tender. If you can't find cornichons, chopped kosher dill pickles can be used in their place. To maintain its consistency, don't refrigerate the salad; it should be served within 4 hours of preparation. The vinegar in the cooking water is key -- it lengthens the window of time between when the potatoes go from perfectly cooked to mushy. Something about pectin in the potato breaking down...

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices (about 4 large)
1 cup vegetable broth
1 cup water
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 small red onion, chopped fine (about 3/4 cup)
6 cornichons (about 2 tablespoons) or 6 baby dill pickles, minced (about 2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
1 pinch ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring potatoes, broth, water, 1 teaspoon salt, sugar, and 1 tablespoon vinegar to boil in 12-inch heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until potatoes offer no resistance when pierced with paring knife, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove cover, increase heat to high (so cooking liquid will reduce), and cook 2 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes in colander set over large bowl, reserving cooking liquid. Set drained potatoes aside. Pour off and discard all but ½ cup cooking liquid (if ½ cup liquid does not remain, add water to make ½ cup). Whisk remaining tablespoon vinegar, mustard, and oil into cooking liquid.
  • 3. Add ½ cup cooked potatoes to bowl with cooking liquid mixture and mash with potato masher or fork until thick sauce forms (mixture will be slightly chunky). Add remaining potatoes, onion, cornichons, and chives, folding gently with rubber spatula to combine. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.
