Potato, pepper and tuna salad.

pimiento y atún.

Potato salad is the salad of summer, the one that is prepared in time to eat fresh. It is a very simple salad with few ingredients but they go together very well.

The most important ingredient is the potato, in this case we have chosen the new potato, the one that lasts from March to June, its name is due, mainly, to the fact that it is not yet at its perfect degree of ripeness, but they are perfectly consumable and very rich

The new potato must be cooked with the skin on and when they are still a little hot, they are peeled and seasoned.

The rest of the ingredients are to give that touch of color and flavor that invite you to eat it after a day at the beach or pool.
