1-Start by whisking the dressing ingredients vigorously until they’re thick and well emulsified, giving you that creamy texture everyone loves. This step sets the stage for the salad’s bold flavors to shine through.

2-Next, place the potatoes in a large pot with 2 inches of cold water and 1 tablespoon salt, then bring it to a boil and simmer until they’re tender. In the last 1 to 2 minutes, add the green beans to the pot for a quick cook. Once done, drain everything and slice the hot potatoes in half lengthwise or into smaller pieces if they’re large.

3-Put the warm potatoes and beans into a large bowl and toss them gently with some of the dressing right away. This helps them soak up those fantastic flavors. After they cool, mix in the fresh herbs and red onion, adding more dressing if needed, then chill the salad before serving and finish with freshly cracked black pepper.

4-Building on the earlier steps, remember to adjust the seasoning to your taste for the best outcome.
