Summer is a time for great potato salads. While I must say I do love mayonnaise, this potato salad (sans mayo) is fantastic. If you like garlic and lemon flavors this will be a big hit in your house. I also loooooooooooooooove capers, so to me they are the icing on the cake of this dish.
While I didn't have fingerlings this time (you can tell in the picture), I just used the small yukon gold potatoes and it worked fine. I don't make any changes to this recipe except to add another clove of garlic because garlic is like the 7th food group to us.
You have to at least try this one recipe, you won't regret it.

I hope you enjoy this in your home because we LOOOOOOOOOVE it!
