Potato & Sugar Snap Pea Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 1/2 lbs small red potatoes, scrubbed and cut in 1-inch chunks
    1/2 cup vegetable broth (or chicken)
    1 lb sugar snap pea
    2 cups frozen tiny peas
    mustard dressing
    1/3 cup red wine vinegar (or try 1/2 balsamic!)
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    1 tablespoon sugar
    2 1/2 teaspoons salt
    1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
    1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
    1 cup red onion, sliced thinly in strips
    1 cup thinly sliced red radish
    1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf Italian parsley
Preparation
    Cook the potatoes in water to cover 12-15 minutes, until tender. Drain, then toss in a bowl with vegetable broth. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or until chilled.
    Meanwhile bring 2 quarts of water to a boil and prepare a bowl of ice water. Add snap peas and green peas to boiling water, return to a boil and cook 1 minute or until snap peas turn bright green. Drain, then submerge in ice water to stop cooking and cool. Drain and refrigerate.
    Dressing:
    Whisk ingredients except oil in a small bowl until blended. Gradually add oil, whisking constantly until thickened. Cover and refrigerate.
    To serve:
    Put potatoes (with broth), snap peas, green peas, onion, radishes and parsley in a serving bowl. Whisk Mustard Dressing to recombine, add to bowl, and toss to mix and coat. Enjoy!
