INSTRUCTIONS
Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water about 20 to 25 minutes, or until
just tender. Drain and, when cool enough to handle, cut potatoes in half if
large. Place them in a salad bowl. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of vinegar
and 4 tablespoons of oil, toss lightly and set aside. Combine the remaining
vinegar, oil, sour cream and mayonnaise in a bowl, add the Dijon mustard
and garlic, and whisk until smooth. Season the dressing with salt and
pepper and set aside. Add the green pepper, scallions, gherkins, pimentos
and dressing to the potatoes. Toss gently and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours
before serving. To serve, return to room temperature and adjust the
seasoning to taste. Serves 6.
