"This potato salad is a creation of mine, and I'm not sure if it's "authentic", but it uses classic mediterranean ingredients - it's on the menu at the Italian restaurant where I'm a chef. Enjoy!!!! 2 tsp might seem like a lot of salt, but it's not - you'd be suprised how much salt you need when cooking with potatoes."
