Notes
 NOTES : Here is a potato salad that will certainly wake up your taste buds. It combines cooked chunks of red potatoes, red bell pepper, and celery with a spicy Chinese dressing of rice vinegar, sesame oil, and gingerroot. The dressing can be made up to five days ahead of time and refrigerated until needed. Plan enough time to chill the potatoes after cooking. Spicy Chinese Potato Salad is a good choice for a picnic potluck, or it can be served with a light beef entree such as Stir-fried Beef With Asparagus and Snow Peas (recipes included in this cookbook). |
