Look for "small new potatoes" with purplered skins, and fewer deep eyes.
Boil rinsed potatoes in plenty of lightly salted water, about 15 minutes,
or until just tender. Drain and set aside.

Cut the asparagus and carrots to size before cooking. Steam each vegetable
separately (a dente).

~Asparagus (1One half to 2inch lengths) 12 minutes.

~Carrots (1/41/3inch thick) 5 minutes.

Put the vegetables in a bowl and chill: to stop cooking and to cool the
potatoes enough so that they can be handled without crumbling. Slice the
red potatoes One fourth to One half inch thick. Prepare the dressing in a blender, food
processor, or handheld grinder. Season with salt and freshly ground
pepper. Drizzle on the salad and toss gently to coat. Fold in the tender
shallot (or scallions; springgreen onions, sweet onion). Cover and chill
(about 2 hours). Lettuce (optional).

Cooksnote substitute fresh rosemary for the basil. Use fresh herbs

NOTES : Here's an eyeappealing potato salad from Wisconsin. Asparagus is
grown there.
