Miner’s Lettuce, Potato and Bacon Salad with Buttermilk Chive Dressing<\/p>\nMiner’s Lettuce, Potato and Bacon Salad with Buttermilk Chive Dressing<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1-1\/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled<\/p>\n
Salt<\/p>\n
4 slices pepper bacon<\/p>\n
1 bunch miner’s lettuce, separated into single leaves, tough bottom stems discarded (about 2 cups)<\/p>\n
1\/2 cup buttermilk<\/p>\n
1 T. lemon juice<\/p>\n
3 T. finely chopped chives<\/p>\n
2 T. thinly sliced cornichons or pickles<\/p>\n
1 T. capers<\/p>\n
Freshly ground black pepper<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Place the potatoes in a medium sauce pan. Add 6 cups of cold water (or enough to cover by 2 inches). Bring to a boil, add 2 tsp. salt, and cook until tender and a paring knife slides easily into the potatoes without resistance, 15-25 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. Drain. When cool enough to handle but still warm, peel the potatoes and cut them into 1\/2-inch slices. Place the potatoes in a large serving bowl. Cook the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate in the microwave or in a frying pan until crisp. Crumble the bacon and add it to the potatoes along with the miner’s lettuce. In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, lemon juice, chives, cornichons, and capers. Toss with the potatoes with the miners lettuce and dressing. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve warm or room temperature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
