For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the vinaigrette. If you prefer a creamier potato salad, you can substitute a tablespoon of mayonnaise for some of the olive oil. Feel free to experiment with other herbs, such as fresh thyme or chives, to customize the flavor profile to your liking. This potato salad is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large saucepan, place the baby Yukon Gold potatoes and cover with water by approximately 1 inch. Add salt to taste, along with the bay leaf. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. (2 minutes)
02
StepOnce boiling, reduce the heat to medium and allow the potatoes to simmer until they are easily pierced with a knife. Take care not to overcook them, aiming for a tender yet firm texture. (12-15 minutes)
03
StepWhile the potatoes are simmering, prepare the vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and freshly ground black pepper until the mixture is well emulsified and slightly thickened.
04
StepOnce the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and allow them to cool slightly until they are just warm enough to handle. Slice the potatoes into approximately 1/2-inch thick pieces and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
05
StepGently drizzle the prepared vinaigrette over the warm potato slices, tossing carefully to ensure that each piece is evenly coated. The warmth of the potatoes will help them absorb the flavors of the vinaigrette.
06
StepAdd the finely chopped shallots and fresh flat-leaf parsley to the bowl. Toss lightly to combine all of the ingredients, being careful not to mash the potatoes.
07
StepAllow the potato salad to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving, giving the flavors time to meld together beautifully. Before serving, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed to suit your preferences. Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the delightful taste of this classic dish.
