  1. Directions 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Toss potatoes with 2 Tbsp. olive oil. Divide evenly among two well-greased 15x10x1-inch baking pans or shallow roasting pans. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast, uncovered, for 30 minutes, or until tender and browned, turning once with metal spatula. Cool slightly; transfer to large bowl.

  2. Meanwhile, prepare Mustard Dressing. Gently toss about 1/4 cup of the dressing with potatoes. Transfer remaining dressing to small jar or pitcher for serving. Cover and refrigerate potatoes and remaining dressing for 6 to 24 hours. Let potatoes stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving. To serve, arrange potatoes with remaining ingredients as directed, below. Makes 12 servings.
