Lemony Potato Salad With Olives, Corn and Cashews
4 pounds of small red potatoes , Cook until just tender,
Do not overcook!
When cooled quarter them and chill while you make the
dressing;
Combine 1 Tbsp minced lemon zest
1/2 ounces if lemon juice,
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard,
1 Tsp fresh tarragon { or 1 Tsp dried}
1/2 cup chopped green onions.
Whisk well and slowly drizzle in 1/3 cup of olive oil
whisking the whole time. Add 1/8 Tsp red pepper Salt and
Pepper to taste. In a large salad bowl place in the
quartered potatoes and gently add 1 and 3/4 cup of corn,
{fresh or frozen well drained} 1/2 cup pitted chopped
Kalamata olives 1/2 cup lightly chopped unsalted
cashews, and 1/2 cup chopped parsley. Reserve a little
for the garnish. Slowly add the dressing Do not over
handle the potatoes or they will break apart. I like to
make the dressing ahead of time so it has time for the
flavors to develop well. Makes about 12 servings;
