A classic potato salad featuring the delicate flavour of Jersey Royal potatoes, enhanced by a tangy caper and mustard vinaigrette made with local Jersey dairy. Fresh herbs and seasonal produce add a vibrant touch.
Place the Jersey Royal potatoes in a large pot of cold, salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until tender but not falling apart. A knife should easily pierce through the potato.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, olive oil, Jersey milk, salt, and pepper until emulsified.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the Jersey butter and toss gently to coat. Allow the potatoes to steam dry for a few minutes.
Lightly crush some of the potatoes with a fork to release their flavour and help the vinaigrette absorb better.
Pour the vinaigrette over the warm potatoes and toss gently to coat evenly.
Add the capers, chopped parsley, chopped chives, sliced radishes, and sliced spring onions. Toss gently to combine.
Season to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Serve warm or at room temperature.

For an extra layer of flavour, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the vinaigrette.
If you don't have fresh chives, you can substitute with finely chopped shallots.
This potato salad is best enjoyed within a few hours of making it.
This potato salad also pairs well with grilled fish or chicken.
Feel free to substitute the radishes for other seasonal vegetables such as asparagus or green beans.
