Finishing the potato salad on a plank adds complexity and smoke to your dish!

Seasons:springsummerautumnwinter

Ingredients

  1. 1 ¾ lbs. medium white potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
  2. Kosher salt
  3. Pepper
  4. ½ cup mayonnaise
  5. ¼ cup white wine vinegar
  6. 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  7. 2 tablespoons capers, finely chopped
  8. 1 garlic clove, minced
  9. Pinch of crushed red pepper
  10. 4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced 1/4 inch thick
  11. ¼ cup finely chopped red onion
  12. ¼ cup finely chopped dill
  13. 2 tablespoons minced chives

Method

  1. Cook the potatoes in boiling water until fork tender.
  2. Make the dressing by combining everything BUT the potatoes together, check the seasonings and adjust to your liking. Toss the potatoes with the dressing and refrigerate.
  3. Preheat the Egg to 400F direct heat.
  4. Place the soaked plank on the preheated grill to get a char on one side of it. Meanwhile, stage ¼ of your potato salad. Once the plank has a nice char, flip it and place the staged potato salad on the charred side of the plank. Place the plank back on the grill and let it grill for 5 mins. Mix that grilled potato salad with the remaining potato salad well, serve with your favorite protein (for the 2/21/24 class it was salmon) and enjoy!
