Warm Potato Salad with
Beer Dressing
Real Beer and Good Eats
by Bruce
Aidells & Denis Kelly,
1992, Alfred A. Knopf
2-1/2 pounds red potatoes
1/2 cup finely chopped mild red or
yellow onions
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
2 tablespoons chopped chives
Beer Dressing
6 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
3/4 cup lager [such as Harp's!]
3 tablespoons malt or cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Salt and pepper
To make the salad:
Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water until a knife point can be easily
inserted, about 20-25 minutes. Remove, and as soon as you can handle
them,
slice them, unpeeled, into l/4-inch rounds. While the potatoes are
still
warm, gently mix them with the onions, parsley, and beer dressing.
Do not
overmix or the potatoes may break into pieces. Taste for salt
and pepper.
Garnish with chopped chives. Serve warm or at room
temperature.
Yield: 6 servings
To make the dressing:
Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a small frying pan over medium
heat. Add the onions and cook until just soft, about 5 minutes. Add
the
lager, vinegar, and sugar and boil for 5 minutes. Put into a food
processor
with the mustard. With the motor running, slowly pour in
the remaining 4
tablespoons olive oil. Taste for salt and pepper.
Yield: about 1 cup, enough for 2-1/2 pounds of potatoes
