Emerald City Potato Salad

Perfect for picnics, cookouts, or a lunch on the go, summer is the right time for potato salad. This simple recipe adds fennel to a basic potato salad, and pairs it with Emerald City Seasoning for a winning flavor combination. The blend's base of dried herbs brings out the vegetal flavors of the fennel, while the green and pink pepper balance its sweeter notes.

Emerald City Seasoning

Get a taste of the Pacific Northwest! This rainy corner of the country we call home has a subtle and simple culinary character. In short, we love our local flavors and like to let them shine through. From salmon or shellfish straight off the boat to freshly picked apples and blackberries to mushrooms and fiddlehead ferns gathered in the forest, we enjoy the bounty from every part of the region.

Enter our Emerald City Seasoning. This blend pairs an herbaceous base of savory, lemon thyme and chives with pink and green peppercorns for a light and playful taste which will enhance, but not overpower, your food.
