This was sooo good when I tasted it for seasoning just after putting it together. Then I put it in the frig and forgot to take it out to come back to room temperature before dinner. That was a mistake. I recommend warm or room temp only.

    Potatoes and garlic, what's not to love??? I cubed my potatoes before cooking them and boiled them for 10 minutes. The 'dressing' flavors blended perfectly and complimented the potatoes beautifully. Thanks so much for sharing it Mel! I'm sure this won't be the last time I fix it!

    Brava! Che bella insalata! Mel, this totally reminded me of something you would have at my house or at Nonna's I had this saved in my cookbook for a while and I decided to use up some red potatoes I had and finish up some parsley I bought on Sunday. I used the garlic press for the garlic and used 4 big cloves (personal preference). I used kosher salt and also added a some fresh lemon juice. This potato salad is so good and will be used to serve with grilled meats in the warmer months ahead! So simple and so delicious. Grazie e Ciao Ragazza!

    Thanks so much for this recipe, my hubby and I are now addicted to it and I've already made it 4 times! I followed the recipe's directions, and have nothing to add except that you can adjust the amounts of garlic and parsley as needed. Delicious stuff!

    Brought back memories of my Italian Grandmother's cooking. Awesome taste and it gets better and better as it sits. Great garlic flavor. Thanks so much - will definitely be a make again recipe.

    Yes, yes, yes. Brings back memories of the only potato salad my mother ever made. We ALWAYS use flat-leat (Italian) parsley. Don't you?

    It was ok, something different. I used russet potatoes, perhaps that was the problem. thanks, Mel T

    Most of the time, I think simple is best, and this recipe is a perfect example of simplicity at its finest. A non-fussy, delicious dish I'm sure I'll be making often--thanks for posting!

    Very good! I, too, cubed my potatoes before boiling. I used the 4 cloves of garlic and added a bit of onion. This is a nice "no mayo" potato salad! Thanx for posting it.

    I have a twist on mine. Instead of garlic i put chopped onions and I add a couple of table spoons of vinigar (go by taste) and a couple of hard boiled eggs chopped
