(Prep time: 3 minutes; Cook time: 7 minutes)

05 Step

Recipe View 1 mins Serve warm or at room temperature. For optimal flavor, refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight and reheat gently before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. (Prep time: 1 minute)

For a richer flavor, use apple cider vinegar instead of white wine vinegar.
Adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the vinegar mixture can enhance the tanginess.
If you prefer a less sweet salad, reduce the amount of sugar to 1 1/2 cups.
Yukon Gold potatoes hold their shape well, but red potatoes or fingerling potatoes are also good choices.
To make ahead, prepare the salad completely and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave before serving.
