Dill and Shallot Potato Salad

Serves 4

Mix a Dijon dill dressing with tender fingerling or baby potatoes for a tasty salad. This is a perfect side for Snappy Schnitzel.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds fingerling or other baby potatoes, thinly sliced
  • Salt
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • Pepper
  • 1 scant teaspoon sugar
  • About 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • About 1/3 cup canola oil
  • 1 small rib celery, very thinly sliced
  • A handful of fresh dill, chopped

Directions

  1. In a large pot, cover the potatoes with an inch of cold water. Bring to a boil, salt the water and cook to tender. Drain and return the potatoes to the hot pot to dry them off.
  2. Meanwhile, place the shallot in a bowl and season with salt, pepper and sugar; cover with cider vinegar and let stand for a few minutes. Add the mustard and whisk in the oil. Adjust the seasonings, to taste. Toss the potatoes with the dressing, celery and dill.

Corn Fritters with Alex Guarnaschelli

Yields about 15-20 fritters

I could eat corn every day in one form or another. This is recent addition to my repertoire. A few notes: I like to make the batter and drop a little bit in the hot oil, fry and taste it to see if I want to add more salt, sugar or cayenne…Like a test run. Season the corn itself by tossing the kernels in a little salt and brown sugar so it has a lot of flavor itself…If using frozen or canned corn, drain of all excess liquid before seasoning and mixing into batter. If cooking fresh corn, cut the corn off the cob and cook in 1 tablespoon of butter in a sauté pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Then cool and drain of any excess liquid.
