Classic Vegan Potato Salad (wfpb)

I veganized this classic potato salad according to my grandma's recipe. This vegan potato salad won't let you miss the original. A great salad for potlucks and barbecues. And no one would notice that this is vegan unless you tell it. The dressing is oil-free, creamy and naturally gluten-free.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs of waxy potatoes Red Bliss, New Potatoes or Yukon Gold
  • 2 shallots
  • 1 ½ cups 355 ml vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoon cashews raw and soaked
  • 4 dill pickles
  • 2 teaspoon mustard Dijon or medium hot
  • 6 tablespoon pickle juice or white wine vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked peppers

Instructions

  • First of all, you steam the potatoes in a steamer. 
  • In the meantime, soak the cashews in hot water. And cut the shallots and pickles into small cubes and place them in a sufficiently large bowl, in which the whole salad will fit afterwards.
  • When the potatoes are tender and have cooled a little, peel them with a knife. Simply slide a knife over the potato and the skin will come loose. Cut the potatoes into slices and add them to the shallots and pickles.
  • Now drain the cashews and put them with the remaining ingredients for the dressing in a high speed blender and blend until creamy.
  • Taste the dressing and pour the dressing over the potatoes. Fold in the dressing and season it again briefly.
