Potato Salad à L’Oleavanti
Ehden Grove Extra-Virgin Olive Oil and potatoes are a marriage made in heaven (or at least Ehden!)
Ingredients
- 8 small Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 small bunch spinach, chopped
- ½ cup Italian parsley, leaves or coarsely chopped
- 2 Tbsp fresh mint (about 8 leaves)
- 1 bunch scallions, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Lemon juice to taste
- ½ cup of Oleavanti Ehden Grove Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- Salt and black pepper
- Lemon zest
- Oleavanti Sumac
Directions
- Add cut potatoes to a pot, cover them with cold water by an inch, add a big pinch of salt and bring to a boil on high heat. When the water boils, reduce the heat and simmer the potatoes until they are firm but tender when pierced with a fork or paring knife. Test cut potatoes as soon as the water comes to a boil, it doesn’t take long to cook small pieces of potato. Pour into a colander and let cool to room temperature.
- Mix the spinach, scallions, mint leaves, coarse parsley in the salad bowl.
- Prepare the dressing by mixing minced garlic, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Slowly add ½ cup of Oleavanti Ehden Grove EVOO in a stream while whisking constantly until emulsified. Adjust the lemon and seasoning to taste.
- Add the dressing to the greens and mix until well incorporated.
- Add the potatoes, mix everything until well coated and incorporated.
- Twist black pepper, add lemon zest, and sprinkle sumac.
- Drizzle more olive oil. This salad should be drenched in olive oil!
