SPRING ASPARAGUS, HAM AND POTATO SALAD - HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING
A light, fresh and very tasty potato salad, which is more of a meal than a side dish! I made this up when I had a few spears of fresh asparagus left, some boiled potatoes and some honey roast ham in the fridge! This recipe/idea is for two people - but it can be increased with ease, hence my listing of the ingredients in numbers, rather than in ounces or grammes! The dressing can be made ahead......and, hopefully it will be warm enough to sit outside and soak up the spring or early summer sun......c'est Parfait!

Steps:
- Make up the dressing by putting all the dressing ingredients into a jar and shaking it well. The dressing can be made up well in advance.
- Choose two attractive plates or bowls and start to assemble the salad.
- Place the potatoes on the plate/bowl first and then arrange the strips of ham & asparagus spears over the top - gently mix through to "just" mingle the ingredients together.
- Next, scatter the minced/finely diced red onion over and then the sliced cornichons - if you are using them.
- Pour over the honey & mustard dressing - giving the salad a liberal dousing!
- Season and scatter the chopped chives and/or the chopped chervil over the top.
- Serve with crusty bread & a glass of crisp, chilled white Chablis or Chardonnay!
- Optional ideas:.
- You could also add peas, broad beans, olives or crispy bacon!

Steps:
- For the dressing: Smash the garlic cloves, sprinkle with the salt, and, with the flat side of a large knife, mash and smear the mixture to a coarse paste. Put in a bowl and whisk with the mayonnaise, vinegar, and black pepper to taste.
- For the salad: Put the water, vermouth, garlic, salt, thyme, bay leaf, peppercorns, and potatoes in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the carrots, lower the heat, and cook until the vegetables are tender but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Stir in the radishes, then immediately drain all the vegetables in a colander in the sink. Remove and discard the garlic, thyme, bay leaf, and peppercorns. Cool slightly and toss the vegetables with the dressing. Cover and refrigerate about 30 minutes. (The salad can be prepared up to this point a day ahead.)

NEW POTATO SALAD WITH FENNEL AND SPRING PEAS
I used to have a little coffee shop a long time ago called the Gotham Coffee Shop, and this potato salad was one of our most popular items. With the warm vinaigrette, it's almost like a German-style potato salad, plus a surprising crunch from the fennel. Recipe adapted from Taste and Technique: Recipes to Elevate Your Home Cooking, available on September 13, 2016 wherever books are sold.

Steps:
- For the potatoes and peas: Add 6 cups water, 3 tablespoons of salt, and potatoes to a heavy-bottomed pot. Turn heat to high, partially cover, and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, blanch peas: Bring 6 cups of water with 3 tablespoons of salt to a boil. Prepare an ice bath with 1 tablespoon of salt. Add peas to the boiling water and cook until the water comes up to a boil again, 2-3 minutes. Taste to verify that the peas are fully cooked; then strain, place peas into the salted ice bath to halt cooking, and set aside. Check potatoes periodically by piercing the largest one with a fork. They are done when the fork goes all the way through with no resistance. Turn off the heat and let the potatoes sit in their water, 4-5 minutes longer. While potatoes are cooking, prep the rest of the ingredients (Step 2).
- Vinaigrette: In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer to dissolve and incorporate all of the ingredients. Remove from heat and set aside. Meanwhile, prepare the fennel by removing the fronds (reserving them for later use) and use a mandoline to slice into thin strips. Add the sliced fennel to a bowl, along with the green onions and warm vinaigrette. Toss to coat and set aside.
- Assembly: Drain the peas and fully cooked potatoes. Cut the potatoes in half and add directly to the fennel while they are still warm; toss so the vinaigrette is absorbed into the potatoes. Roughly chop the fennel fronds (about ¼ cup), and cut the mint and basil into a rough chiffonade (about ¼ cup total); add to the salad. At the last minute, to avoid discoloration, add the peas. Toss again and serve.
MINTED PEA SPRING POTATO SALAD
While this is called potato salad, it's not the traditional creamy potato salad you think of from a BBQ. It's really a side dish filled with fresh mint, parsley, potatoes, peas, and hard-boiled eggs. It's a fresh salad perfect for spring. Everything is dressed in a light lemony dressing that adds a little zing to the salad. A fresh Easter side dish option.

Steps:
- Wash and scrub potatoes or if in my house, peel potatoes as no one likes the skins. Cut in half and place in boiling salted water. Add 4 eggs to this pan or you can boil them separately. They are usually done after about 10 minutes but test with a fork for doneness.
- Add the bag of frozen peas to the water.
- Turn off the heat and cover. You don't want the peas to get mushy and you want them to stay green but still cooked.
- After about 10 minutes, drain in a colander. Peel eggs under cold running water and quarter them.
- Mix your salad dressing of lemon, olive oil, chopped mint, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Pour all into a bowl or casserole dish and toss everything together.
- Top with Parmesan cheese and serve or chill and serve later.
ASPARAGUS AND SPRING ONION POTATO SALAD
Steps:

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely cool. Meanwhile, steam the asparagus until bright green and tender crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a colander and rinse under cold running water until cool. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, yogurt and mustard. To serve, gently toss together the cooled potatoes, asparagus and green onions. Drizzle the mayonnaise mixture over the salad, tossing just until everything is coated with dressing.

SPRING POTATO SALAD
This potato salad has a bit of a kick to it from the dry mustard. Easy, light and delicious. I serve this with Roasted Green beans for an all vegan menu. Cut the potatoes to your liking or, if small enough leave whole. I soak the scallions in cold water as they are a bit strong for me.
