DEE'S TRI COLORED POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• I like to steam my potatoes of this salad so the purple taters don't bleed their color so much. Steam until tender but not overdone & mushy. You can also use the steam water to cook the eggs. Chop all veggies while they are cooking. Cool eggs & potatoes until you can handle them, but still warm. Dice potatoes and pour salad dressing over them. Toss to coat. Dice eggs on top of potatoes. Cover and chill for a couple of hours. Put salad together by adding all the other ingredients. Mix well and adjust mayo or seasonings if necessary. Chill several hours before serving so flavors can marry. Enjoy!

DEVILED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Add the potatoes and oil to a resealable bag and season with salt and pepper; shake the bag to thoroughly coat the potatoes. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until easily pierced with a paring knife, 15 to 20 minutes; cool.
• Cut the potatoes in half so the biggest surface area is exposed. Remove all of the flesh from 4 of the potato halves with a 1/4-teaspoon measuring spoon or melon baller. Put the potato flesh in a medium bowl and discard the skins. Use the spoon to scoop out most of the potato flesh from the remaining 12 potato halves, leaving about 1/4 inch of flesh on the skins so the "shells" firmly hold their shape. Transfer the potato flesh to the medium bowl.
• Add the mayonnaise, relish, mustard, dill and cayenne to the bowl and mash with a potato masher until well mixed and fairly smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spoon the mixture back into the potato shells. Dust lightly with smoked paprika and garnish with dill. Serve at room temperature.

• Put the purple potatoes in a medium pot and cover with water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a light boil over medium heat. Cook until the potatoes are tender but still retain and hold their shape, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and let cool until just slightly warm.
• In a large serving bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and mix until blended. Add the potatoes and gently toss until they are completely coated.

DESIRéE POTATOES PAN-COOKED WITH ROSEMARY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Add potatoes to a saucepan and cover with cold water. Add salt to taste and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes. Drain thoroughly and allow to cool completely.
• Warm the oil in a heavy frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and sauté gently until just beginning to color and soften, about 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer potatoes to a plate. Set aside.
• Increase heat to high, add the potatoes and sauté, shaking the pan back and forth, until almost tender, about 12 minutes.
• Add the sautéed garlic, rosemary and salt to taste. Continue to sauté until the potatoes are crisp and golden, about 2 minute more.
• Transfer to a serving dish and serve at once. Have guests squeeze the garlic cloves from their papery sheaths onto their own servings.

TRI-COLORED SUMMER POTATO SALAD WITH HERBED SHALLOT VINIAGRETTE

Steps:

• Wash and clean potatoes, and cut into pieces about three-quarters of an inch square. Cut them in half or quarters to that all pieces are approximately the same size and approximately 1-1/2 inches. Place in a large pot and cover with cold water; bring to a boil and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Boil until knife tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, place back in the pot and cover, so that the potatoes stay warm until they are dressed.
• While the potatoes are boiling, whisk together the mustard, vinegar and shallots. Add the olive oil in a slow steady stream, whisking continuously. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the vinaigrette over the drained hot potatoes using a spatula to gently turn the potatoes so that the vinaigrette coats them all. Let the dressed potatoes cool to room temperature.
• Generously sprinkle the potato salad with the chopped herbs, gently mixing so that every potato bite will have some herbs. Enjoy chilled.
