Notes
- Pour the dressing over the potatoes while they are still a little warm. This way they suck up the dressing and absorb the flavor.
- It's also important to over-season the dressing. The dressing needs to be a little too sharp, a little too sweet and a a little too salty because the potatoes themselves are like bland little sponges just waiting for the dressing.
