Notes

Along with the fresh herbs, Green Goddess Potato Salad or Mediterranean Potato Salad, often includes a variety of green vegetables, depending on the region.
Before serving, mix the salad again to make it shiny. 
Be careful to not overcook the potatoes as they will become mushy when preparing the salad.
