Look for crème fraîche near the gourmet cheeses in gourmet markets; if you can’t find it, substitute full-fat sour cream. You can prepare this dish a day ahead; stir gently before serving.

11⁄2 pounds small red potatoes, halved
11⁄2 pounds peeled sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 tablespoons white vinegar
3⁄4 cup crème fraîche
1⁄4 cup chopped fresh chives
3⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 cup).
1. Place potatoes in a large Dutch oven; cover with water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 18 minutes or until tender. Drain. Place potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with vinegar; toss gently to coat. Let cool to room temperature.

2. Combine crème fraîche and remaining ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Add to potatoes, tossing gently to coat.
