Carlo, A little late, but this time I even formatted it for you! This is from Dr. Andrew Weil's website...delicious

Red Potato Salad

Organic red potatoes
1/2 cup Dijon or Dusseldorf mustard
1/2 cup dry white vermouth
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
4 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion
2 stalks celery
2 tsp capers
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
Chopped fresh dill to taste
1/2 lb. green beans (optional)

1. Boil potatoes in their skins, covered, just until they can be easily pierced with a sharp knife.

2. Meanwhile, prepare dressing in a 16-ounce jar, combining mustard, vermouth, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste; shake well.

3. Drain potatoes, let cool enough to handle, then peel and cut into thick slices in a large bowl.

4. Pour dressing over them while they are warm, tossing well.

5. Add chopped onion, sliced celery, capers, finely chopped parsely, dill and, if you like, other chopped vegetables (red bell pepper, radish).

6. Correct seasoning. Chill for 24 hours in the refrigerator.

7. If desired, lightly cooked fresh green beans are a good last-minute addition.
