Ingredients

  • 2 pounds sweet potatoes peeled
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice fresh is best
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
  • 1 tablespoon pure honey
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2/3 cups olive oil
  • 1/4 cup tarragon fresh, chopped

Instructions

  • Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook for about 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain and cool completely.
  • While the potatoes cool, combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, dijon, whole grain mustard, honey, and salt in a blender. Blend well, while blending gradually add the olive oil until creamy. Set aside.
  • Once cold, dice the potatoes and place in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over top and sprinkle with the tarragon. Gently stir.
  • Allow to set, refrigerated, for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

TIP: To speed the cooling of the potatoes, remove them from the hot water and place them into a bath of cold water and ice.
