Steps:

Spread on the hot baking sheet and roast, tossing halfway through, until tender and golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the snap peas and cook until bright green but still crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice water; let cool. Drain and pat dry.
• Whisk the vinegar, mustard, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Add the roasted potatoes and shallots, peas, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, parsley, chives and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper and toss.

Steps:

• Drop the white and red potatoes into a large pot of boiling salted water and cook for 20 to 30 minutes, until they are just cooked through. Drain in a colander and place a towel over the potatoes to allow them to steam for 10 more minutes. As soon as you can handle them, cut in 1/2 (quarters if the potatoes are larger) and place in a medium bowl. Toss gently with the wine and chicken stock. Allow the liquids to soak into the warm potatoes before proceeding.
