Warm Potato Salad



This Honey Mustard Warm Potato Salad is a terrific alternative to the usual heavy potato salad made with mayonnaise! This is perfect for holiday feasting or a side for any meal.

Creamy potato salad was the exception rather than the rule when I was growing up. Mayonnaise, sour cream, cream cheese – all things rich and creamy were basically considered “treats” and only made an appearance for specific occasions when a particular recipe called for them. They never made the weekly shopping basket.


The combination of warm potatoes with crispy buttery skin tossed through with creamy Honey Mustard Dressing is a stellar combination in this tasty Honey Mustard Warm Potato Salad. One of the reasons why this is so good is because the when you toss warm potatoes in dressing, it sucks up all that flavour rather than just coating it on the outside like normal potato salad. That’s a great trick for preparing potatoes, actually!

I like my potatoes to be buttery – for flavour – but you need to use a combination of oil and butter, otherwise the butter burns. That’s a little roasting tip for you!! You an apply it to anything you roast – use about 1:1 equal rations of butter to oil, and you’ll get a nice golden crust on the vegetables or protein you’re roasting without the bitter burnt butter. :-) I learned the hard way!!
