Steps:
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven combine sliced potatoes and salt. Cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes are easily pierced by a paring knife and pulled out with little resistance, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain. Transfer the potatoes to a large mixing bowl.
- In a small food processor or blender, combine the olive oil, 1/3 cup parsley, 1/3 cup green onions, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic and freshly ground black pepper. Process until the herbs and garlic have been chopped into little pieces. Then, while running the food processor, pour in the reserved cooking water and process just until blended. (If you don't have a food processor or blender, just finely chop the parsley and onions and whisk the dressing together until the oil is fully incorporated.)
- Drizzle the potatoes with the herbed olive oil mixture and gently mix to combine. (It will look like you've poured in too much dressing, but don't worry, the potatoes will soak it up!) Let the potatoes rest for ten minutes, gently tossing every few minutes.
- Add the celery to the bowl, along with a couple tablespoons each of additional chopped parsley and green onions. Toss again. Season generously to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until you're ready to serve. This salad is best served within a few hours, but will keep in the refrigerator for about three days.

FRENCH POTATO SALAD
Steps:
- Drop the white and red potatoes into a large pot of boiling salted water and cook for 20 to 30 minutes, until they are just cooked through. Drain in a colander and place a towel over the potatoes to allow them to steam for 10 more minutes. As soon as you can handle them, cut in 1/2 (quarters if the potatoes are larger) and place in a medium bowl. Toss gently with the wine and chicken stock. Allow the liquids to soak into the warm potatoes before proceeding.
- Combine the vinegar, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and slowly whisk in the olive oil to make an emulsion. Add the vinaigrette to the potatoes. Add the scallions, dill, parsley, basil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss. Serve warm or at room temperature.
MAYO-FREE FRENCH POTATO SALAD
This potato salad takes its dressing from the French; the potatoes are infused with white wine, chicken stock, and a light vinaigrette instead of gloppy mayonnaise.

Steps:
- Place the potatoes in a large stockpot; cover with cold water by 2 inches. Place over high heat, and bring to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons salt, and reduce to a simmer. Cook for 15 to 30 minutes, until just barely tender. Drain into a colander. Cover with a kitchen towel, and allow to steam for 10 minutes.
- Cut the potatoes in halves or quarters, depending on size. Combine the white wine and chicken stock, and pour over warm potatoes. Allow to sit for 10 minutes. Add celery, scallions, and cornichons, and toss to combine.
- Combine mustards, vinegar, remaining salt, and pepper in a small bowl; whisk to combine. Gradually add olive oil, whisking constantly, until emulsified. Pour dressing over potatoes; let sit until room temperature; stir in dill. Serve cold or at room temperature.
MAYO-FREE POTATO SALAD
I personally don't like the taste of mayonnaise, so would never eat potato salad. Don't know where this recipe came from, but it ended up pretty good. Always a hit at our summer parties!

Steps:
- In a large pot, bring the potatoes to a boil.
- Add the eggs into the same pot. Boil for 10 minutes until hard boiled. Take the eggs out of the pot with tongs, but leave the potatoes until you can easily stick a fork into them.
- While potatoes continue to boil, rinse the eggs in cold water to cool down.
- While eggs continue to cool, dice red onion.
- Dice the eggs.
- Remove potatoes from water and dice into large chunks.
- While potatoes are still hot, combine with eggs and onions (heat from potatoes slightly cooks the onions).
- Add seasonings. (These measurements are a guesstimate -- I usually just eyeball and add until it tastes right).
- Serve warm or refrigerate if desired (I prefer mine warm).
