This recipe is one I remember from many, many years ago. It is incredibly good but a little more complicated than a more traditional recipe but it is worth the time.

Boil about 3 pounds of new potatoes with the skins on till tender and cut them into bite size pieces when they are cool.

Place in a large mixing bowl and add:

1/3 cup white wine 1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup sour cream 1/2 cup Dukes mayo

1/2 cup Dukes mayo (must be Dukes)

2 tbs Dijon mustard

2 tbs white wine vinegar

4 fresh green onions - green and white parts chopped in small pieces

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1 tsp celery salt

6 oz of crumbled blue cheese.

Toss gently and chill at least 2 hours.

Right before serving, garnish with more green onions and chopped, cooked bacon.
