Potato Salad with Whole Grain Mustard
Adapted from Alice Water’s The Art of Simple Food, this classic recipe gets an added kick from our housemade Whole Grain Mustard and garlicky scapes.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds waxy potatoes
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon wine, cider, or rice wine vinegar
Salt and Fresh-ground black pepper
1/2 red onion, cut into small dice or very thinly sliced
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons F&L mustard
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1-2 chopped garlic scapes
Method:
1. Cook potatoes in salted water until tender (there should be very little resistance when poked with a paring knife). Drain, cool, peel, and cut into bite size pieces. Place in a mixing bowl.
2. Simmer eggs for nine minutes, cool in cold water, and peel.
3. Mix vinegar, salt, and pepper in small bowl, pour over potatoes and stir gently. Let sit for 7 or so minutes to allow potatoes to absorb vinegar. Add onion, olive oil, and F&L mustard and mix carefully. Taste for salt and vinegar and add more as needed.
4. Chop the eggs and gently stir into the potatoes with chives, parsley, and scapes.
Sourdough Hotcakes
Pancakes made with this King Arthur Flour recipe boast a crisp, light texture and a delightful mild tang.
Ingredients:
Overnight sponge (see below)
2 large eggs
¼ cup vegetable oil or melted butter
¾ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
Overnight sponge:
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups buttermilk
1 cup sourdough starter, unfed
Method:
1. To make the overnight sponge, stir down your refrigerated sourdough starter, and remove 1 cup. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the 1 cup starter, flour, sugar, and buttermilk. Cover and let rest at room temperature overnight.
2. In a small bowl or mixing cup, beat together the eggs, and oil or butter. Add to the overnight sponge. Add the salt and baking soda, stirring to combine. The batter will bubble.
3. Heat a skillet or griddle or medium-high heat. Spoon or pour about ¼ cup of the batter into the skillet and cook 1-2 minutes, then flip. Once both sides are golden brown and the batter is cooked through, remove hotcake and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with butter and maple syrup.
Asparagus with Sauce Gribiche
Bright green asparagus spears are drizzled with a classic French-style cold egg sauce in this refreshing recipe.
Ingredients:
Asparagus spears
4 hard cooked eggs, peeled
2 hard cooked egg yolks
1-2 teaspoons Dijon or whole grain mustard
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar

2. Put whole hard cooked eggs in bowl with mustard, sea salt and pepper and mash together with a pastry blender or fork. Add vinegar and then add the olive oil, drop by drop as if making mayonnaise. To keep the sauce creamy, add very small amounts of vinegar or warm water at a time. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste and finish the sauce by adding chopped herbs, capers and cornichons.
