Chef's Notes
Pay close attention to the onions while they simmer in the broth mixture. You want them tender yet still possessing a slight bite to give this rustic dish its signature texture.
Pro Tip
Pour the warm dressing over the potatoes while they are still warm so they absorb all the tangy, savory flavors like a sponge.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping the entire pot of boiling potatoes on the kitchen floor while trying to drain them, leaving you barefoot in a puddle of hot water and raw starch.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the Jester if he liked the salad, and he replied that it's the only time he prefers his starch to have a bathing routine in vinegar.
The Culinary Science
Warm potatoes have expanded cellular walls that readily absorb vinegar and broth, whereas chilled potatoes repel liquids, making warm dressing application essential.
