"You asked for it—a spring potato (and asparagus!) salad! For those who can’t agree on a creamy potato salad or a sharper-dressed one, here you don’t have to: Once tossed in a zesty vinaigrette, the potatoes is tumbled onto on a bed of horseradish spiked Greek yogurt—so just scoop up your favorite bits or mix it all together on your plate! The salad uses a whole lot of the season’s produce: creamy new potatoes, green asparagus (since asparagus salad was the runner up, I decided to give you both in one recipe!) peas, radishes, and herbs. You can substitute or dial up the dill and mint with whichever soft, spring herbs you like or have on hand—like parsley, wild garlic, or tarragon. This recipe is part of “The Community Issue,” a collaboration with Infarm—the urban farming revolutionaries based in our Berlin community; with global reach across 10 countries and 30 cities. Check out their website for more information and to check if their 100% locally grown produce is available in your community."
