  • 0.3 cup olive oil extra-virgin

Equipment

Directions

  1. Cover potatoes with salted cold water by 1 inch, then simmer until just tender, 10 to 15 minutes. (Potatoes will continue to cook after draining; do not overcook or they will break apart.)
  2. Drain potatoes and rinse under cold water until slightly cooled. Halve lengthwise and while still warm gently toss with 1 tablespoon vinegar. Cool potatoes to room temperature, then season with salt and pepper.
  3. While potatoes cook, coarsely chop jalapeños and pulse in a food processor with cilantro, shallots, garlic, oil, and remaining 3 tablespoons vinegar until finely chopped.
  4. Toss potatoes with salsa.
  5. • We cool the potatoes before tossing them with the salsa so the herbs won't discolor.• Salsa may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
