Weekly Recipe

Fall Line Fresh Potato Salad: A twist on your Memorial Day Salad

 

Sauce:

4 oz. Greek yogurt (any fat content)

2 T. mayonnaise

1/2 c. diced pickles (homemade, sweet,  spicy, or dill, with juice in there)

Two whole green onions, chopped fine (tops and greens)

1 generous teaspoon black pepper

Snipped herbs of your choice – chives, parsley, cilantro, mint   about a half cup

One bunch fresh dill, snipped, or two T. dried.

(if you like a spicy sauce, add some cayenne – my pickles are spicy so I don’t add anything).

Stir all together in a medium bowl and let blend.
 

Salad:

2 carrots, shredded, about a half cup

2 small slicing cucumbers, skin on, about a cup or more, peeled or unpeeled)

4-6 red radishes, chopped or thinly sliced, about a half cup

8-10 (about a pound and a half) fresh new potatoes

3 medium beets (or five small, or one large). Remove greens, but keep the root top on the beets.  No need to peel – do this when cooked.

 

Cook the potatoes and beets either by roasting in a foil pack (with olive oil and salt) in the oven or by boiling in well-salted water on the stovetop until pierced by a fork.  Remove from pan and chop potatoes (skin on or off) and skin and dice beets.

 

Add immediately to sauce, toss, then let stand for a few minutes. 

 

This should serve 6-8 people.

 

Potential wild additions, also available from our farmers –

*Crumbled crisp bacon

*Crumbled cheese – goat, gouda, feta

*three chopped hard-boiled eggs
 

 

Recipe Care of Ginger Miller, who says, "Most people think potato salad is just potatoes, pickles and onions, but I think it’s a wonderful way to add additional fresh spring veggies and herbs!  I made this salad from the starred produce items from our market."
