Potato salad without mayonnaise is a light and sophisticated dish of Mediterranean cuisine. Its origin is linked to the tradition of using fresh and simple ingredients to create harmonious flavors without excess fat. Tender boiled potatoes pair perfectly with tangy gherkins and fresh green onions, while grainy mustard and vinegar add a pleasant acidity and mild spiciness to the dish. Olive oil, characteristic of Mediterranean gastronomy, unites all components into a single flavor symphony. This salad is ideal as a side dish for meat or fish, as well as a standalone dish for a light lunch. It should be served chilled to fully reveal the aromas of the ingredients, creating a truly refreshing and appetizing treat.
