Potato salad from Appetites: A Cookbook (page 28) by Anthony Bourdain

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Easy. Solid.

    There were 3 cookbooks open on my counter as I set out to make just a classic potato salad. I chose to review this one as I followed it most closely (with a couple of changes). I followed the cooking instructions with both salt & vinegar in the cooking water. I did use white wine vinegar in place of the red he called for and added a bit of sugar & pickled red onion brine to taste. As we are having ribs, I didn't feel we needed bacon but I did add hard boiled eggs (as we have them in the fridge & they were a key reason for this side dish choice. It IS very good.

    This was so good! Probably the best potato salad I've ever had (don't tell my mom). I couldn't find cornichons, so I just used some fancy pickles which are close enough.
