French Potato Salad with White Wine and Celery Leaves

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 6

Ingredients

2 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
Coarse salt
3 tablespoons roughly chopped shallots
2 tablespoons white wine
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
Freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup loosely packed celery leaves from inner stalks, torn in half

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place the potatoes in a stockpot, and add enough cold water to cover by 4 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, and add salt; reduce heat, and cook until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain; let cool slightly. Peel the potatoes, and cut into quarters or eighths.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, in a large serving bowl, combine the shallots with the wine and vinegar. While still warm, add the potatoes to the bowl; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle in the oil; toss to coat. Sprinkle with the celery leaves, and serve immediately.
