Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pounds medium new potatoes
Coarse salt
1 fresh bay leaf
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons grainy mustard
1/4 cup Pickled Green Garlic
6 tablespoons pickling liquid (from Pickled Green Garlic)
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon leaves
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

Place potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover; generously salt water and add bay leaf. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until potatoes are easily pierced with the tines of a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Slice crosswise into 1-inch-thick rounds.
Preheat a grill: If using a charcoal grill, make a fire in your grill. When the charcoals are completely covered in gray ash, hold your hand about 5 inches above the grill grid; count how many seconds you can comfortably leave it there. When you can hold it there for 2 to 3 seconds, you have medium-high heat and are ready to grill. If you are using a gas grill, heat the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Before beginning to cook, reduce the temperature by turning the knobs to medium-high.
Place potatoes on grill and cook, turning, until grill marks appear.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together mustards, pickled green garlic, pickling liquid, and olive oil.
Transfer grilled potatoes to large bowl and gently toss to combine. Garnish with herbs and serve.
