The only change I made to this recipe was to steam rather than boil the potatoes, since I think steaming helps vegetables retain a lot more of their nutritional value! The salad came together very nicely & we were very happy with the result!, & I particularly liked the use of whole grain mustard in this one! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

My screen name is a diminutive in Lithuanian for bread, so you won't be suprised to learn that I love to bake bread. In recent years I have been baking a lot of sourdough breads and have several starters sitting in my refrigerator. But I like to cook a lot of other things, as well, especially from various cultures. The cat wishes I would concentrate on meat and fish... I joined a few years ago but started posting recipes and participating in forums just recently - I wish I had done so earlier. Recipezaar is a great community! Right now I am a co-host for the Breads and Baking and the Eastern Europe forums - I hope to see you there!
