Instructions

  1. Place the diced potatoes in a large stockpot and add enough water so that the potatoes are covered by 1 inch.  Cook over medium-high heat until the water reaches a boil.  Then reduce heat to medium to maintain the simmer, and continue cooking the potatoes for 5-8 minutes or until the potatoes pierce easily with a fork.
  2. Drain the potatoes in a colander and let cool for 20-30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients in a bowl (or shake vigorously in a mason jar) until evenly combined.
  4. Once the potatoes are ready to go, combine them in a large serving bowl with the dressing, arugula, mozzarella, tomatoes, artichokes, salami (if using), olives, onion and basil.  Toss gently until evenly combined.
  5. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed, to taste.  Serve immediately, sprinkled with Parmesan cheese.  Or cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1-2 hours and then serve the potato salad chilled.
  6. Refrigerate any leftovers in a sealed container for up to 3 days.
