Red, white and blue potatoes are cooked in water flavored with vinegar and garlic, which infuses into the potatoes as they cook. To finish, simply toss with cherry tomatoes, basil and a simple vinaigrette for a light and colorful potato salad.

Directions
Cook 2 1/2 pounds chopped mixed red, white and blue potatoes in salted simmering water with 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar and 2 garlic cloves until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and cool slightly (discard the garlic). Toss with 1 1/2 cups halved cherry tomatoes, 1/3 cup chopped basil and 2 tablespoons each chopped scallions and parsley. Drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil and 2 more tablespoons white wine vinegar, season with salt and pepper and toss.
Cook’s Note
Never drop your potatoes into boiling water; they’ll cook unevenly. Put them in a pot, cover with cold water (and some salt), bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
