Creamy Potato Salad With Yogurt Vinaigrette - labradors - 08-31-2010 This is a New York Times recipe someone passed on to me today. Haven't tried it, but it sounds good. Creamy Potato Salad With Yogurt Vinaigrette Makes 6-8 servings Ingredients: 1 medium red onion, diced 1/3 cup vinegar (red or white wine, sherry or apple cider) 1 to 2 garlic cloves, to taste, minced or pureed Salt to taste 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt 1 tablespoon Hellmann’s or Best Foods Mayonnaise (optional) Freshly ground pepper 2 pounds red potatoes, scrubbed and quartered if small, cut in large dice if large 4 stalks celery, diced or sliced 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley Optional: 2 or 3 hard-cooked eggs, diced Instructions: In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, garlic, salt, mustard, olive oil, yogurt and mayonnaise (if using). Place the onion in a bowl, and pour on boiling water to cover. Drain immediately, rinse with cold water and transfer to the bowl with the dressing. Steam the potatoes above one inch of boiling water for 10 to 15 minutes until tender. Remove from the heat, and toss gently with the onion. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the remaining ingredients and toss together. Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving. Notes: This will keep for four to five days in the refrigerator.

Thanks Re: Creamy Potato Salad With Yogurt Vinaigrette - cjs - 08-31-2010 "Place the onion in a bowl, and pour on boiling water to cover." - I've done this step for some salads and salsas and it sure does make a difference in the intensity of the onion. But, I so love the onion flavor, that I never do it for Roy & me. Re: Creamy Potato Salad With Yogurt Vinaigrette - Mare749 - 08-31-2010 What an interesting recipe, labs. And I like the tip regarding the onion. Never did that before. Thanks for posting. Re: Creamy Potato Salad With Yogurt Vinaigrette - farnfam - 08-31-2010 This does sound good, I think I'll make a smaller batch of this. Re: Creamy Potato Salad With Yogurt Vinaigrette - Gourmet_Mom - 08-31-2010 I've been looking for a different potato salad recipe. I've tried the vinegar ones and don't particularly like that kind, so I'll give this one a try.
