Directions

In a small bowl, whisk together caraway seeds, mustard, vinegar and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook for about 15 minutes, or until fork tender.
Once potatoes are cooked, drain and return to pot. Add dressing, celery and scallions. Season with salt and pepper and gently stir to combine. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

Chef Tips

If you can’t find fingerlings, any small, firm waxy potato will do the job (think small Red Bliss or Yukon Gold). However, do not use Idaho or Russet potatoes. They are brilliant for roast, baked or mashed potatoes, but are too crumbly and starchy to work in a salad like this.

To make this a more substantial dish toss in 1 cup grilled chicken bratwurst cut into ½ inch slices.
