Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Sprinkle the potatoes with salt and pepper and toss with enough olive oil to coat. Grill the potatoes until caramelized, about 4 minutes per side. Place them on the top rack and close the grill, allowing them to finish cooking through, about 20 minutes more. Remove the potatoes from the grill and allow them to come to room temperature.
• To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the vinegar, capers, honey, mustard and olive oil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Dice the potatoes into large chunks and toss in a bowl with the scallions and walnuts. Season with salt and pepper.
• Dress the potatoes with enough vinaigrette to coat the salad. Top with the apples, chives, sesame seeds, cilantro and parsley and serve.

RED POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Slice the potatoes 1/3-inch thick and put in a saucepan with 1 teaspoon of the salt, the water, and the wine. Tie the parsley stems, peppercorns, and thyme in a piece of cheesecloth and add to the pot. Bring to a boil over high heat and immediately lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the potatoes are tender but not mushy, about 12 minutes. Drain; discard the herb bundle and transfer the potatoes to a bowl.
• While the potatoes are cooking make the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, parsley, shallots, the remaining 2 teaspoons of the salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in the oil to make a dressing. Toss the warm potatoes with the dressing gently so as not to break up the potatoes. Allow the salad to sit at room temperature for 1 hour to marinate, tossing several times to coat the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve at room temperature.

• While the potatoes are cooking, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, put the red onion, vinegar and a healthy pinch of salt.

Set aside at room temperature to let the salad absorb the dressing.
