Ingredients
- 14 or 15 large red potatoes (about 5 pounds)
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 3 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 heaping teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1 scant tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup tarragon vinegar
Directions
Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, generously salt the water, and boil the potatoes until tender, approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Drain and let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel potatoes, if desired, and cut into 1-inch chunks. Place cut potatoes in a large bowl. Sprinkle parsley and green onions over potatoes. Make the sauce by mixing the rest of the ingredients together in another bowl; then pour sauce over the potatoes. Stir well. Let stand all day, or at least for 4 hours, stirring every hour. Do not refrigerate. Serve at room temperature.

Delicious recipe, which I have made quite a few times without making anyone ill. If you clean the produce very well, use clean utensils and keep your hands clean, this recipe should not pose a problem. I view it as sort of similar to making pickles at room temperature--the vinegar and salt help keep "growies" at bay. Do observe scrupulous cleanliness and cover the bowl between stirrings.

Hey Paula,
It's a health code violation to leave potentailly hazerdous foods (phf's out in the temperature danger zone (room temperature for 4 hours. Perhaps you should post recipes that won't make people sick.

I had no green onions so I subbed shallots, I didn't have tarragon vinegar so I used 1/2 balsamic and 1/2 red wine vinegar. I sauteed my garlic so it didn't have quite so much bite. My family really liked it! I served it with steak with garlic thyme butter!! I think I will for sure try it using basil in it with no balsamic vinegar next time. The balsamic can be a bit too heavy for what is surely intended to be a lighter refreshing side dish.
