💡 What's interesting

Grilling the potatoes before dressing them is a unique twist that adds a deep, smoky flavor and a firmer texture, setting it apart from boiled potato salads. Nutritionally, this method can help retain more water-soluble vitamins compared to boiling, and the use of fresh herbs significantly boosts the dish's antioxidant content.
