Origin

A fresh twist on the classic picnic salad, blending creamy potatoes with the vibrant flavors of Sauce Pantry’s Pesto.

Pro Tips

  • Use small waxy potatoes (like Yukon Gold or fingerling) for the best texture.

  • Chill the salad before serving so the pesto flavor deepens.

Things to Watch Out For

  • Don’t overcook the potatoes; they should be tender but still hold their shape.

  • Add the pesto while potatoes are slightly warm to absorb more flavor.

Process

  1. Boil potatoes until fork tender, then drain and let cool slightly.

  2. Slice into halves or quarters, depending on size.

  3. Empty one Pesto sachet into a jar, add the instructed liquid, and shake until smooth.

  4. Toss warm potatoes with pesto until evenly coated.

  5. Add extras like fresh parsley, pine nuts, or shaved parmesan if desired.
