Potato Salad

20240318 #breakfastdiary 1006, 1°C/mostly sunny, 21min/workout(Y) This is a #potatosalad with such an unusual texture that it doesn't even bring to mind the potato's past lives. Cut the potatoes on a mandoline, then slice them even thinner into fine strips. (Ah, this part is tricky.) Soak in cold water for about 5 minutes to remove the starch. Drain the potatoes, blanch in boiling water, soak in cold water again, then squeeze out the moisture and transfer to a bowl. Mix in 2 tbsp mayonnaise, 1 tbsp anchovy, and 1 tbsp minced garlic, then mound it neatly onto a plate. Finish with olive oil, paprika powder, and dill. ☝️The crunchy texture — so unlike a potato — is the real charm here. I was short on time so the cuts ended up uneven (roughly fettuccine-width), but slicing them as thin as pasta noodles would probably make for an even more fun texture. Recipe from @reinaltd_official. A #potatosalad with a texture so different from the potato's original taste and feel that its past lives don't even come to mind.
