This is a simple, Eastern European inspired potato salad that tastes delicious warm or room-temperature. It’s a great recipe for the spring to use up cold-storage root vegetables, such as parsnips and carrots, and new spring crops, such as fingerling potatoes, leeks, garlic greens, and fresh herbs. (*Indicates CSA and farmers’ market produce.)
