If you like Basil then you will like this salad. With the final seasoning check I sometimes add a bit of lemon juice, and I like small new potatoes best for this salad

This is superb! The dressing is so full of flavor. I freeze any basil I have left at the end of the summer, so used some of that. Worked out beautifully. The only change I made, was to omit the tomatoes and just used to garnish. Didn't realize I didn't have enough to add. I won't forget next time. :)
