My potatoes began as Red, White and Blue potatoes but after roasting … the red-skinned potatoes did not fare so well so we will say Red White and Blue Roasted Potato Salad in Spirit. Once you taste this, you will not care what color it is.
I originally made this roasted potato salad quite some time ago and it has become a recipe that I return to often. For this summer, I updated the recipe and used Slide Ridge Honey Wine Vinegar and roasted the potatoes with Zensational Fennel Pollen Spice Blend. Ohhhhh the layers of flavor.
The Honey Wine Vinegar gave it a slightly sweet tang and the Zensational layered in more herbaceous notes. I notice them once I slow down from shoveling it into my mouth and rhapsodizing. The bacon is a “gimme” and can be left out – but WHY???
The best part about this Roasted Potato Salad is that it works well at a Potluck Picnic or at a fancier evening nosh.
Happy Summer Salads and Happy Red White and Blue Food!
