RED POTATO AND GREEN PEA SALAD
We read cookbooks the way some people read novels—which probably makes us a little boring at parties. Anyway, I came across a salad dressing that used equal parts sour cream, buttermilk, and mayonnaise. “I’ll bet we can make a great potato salad out of that.” (Of course, converting any recipe to a potato recipe is a pastime in Idaho, where we live.) We used new, waxy, red potatoes (at least in Idaho, they are available year around), and frozen green peas. It was dynamite.
