5 eggs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon white or apple cider vinegar
1 cup finely diced new potatoes or red potatoes (roughly 3 to 4 potatoes)
1/4 cup firmly packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
3 anchovy fillets
6 green olives (preferably the Cerignola variety), pitted
1/4 cup toasted walnuts
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 celery stalk, halved vertically and thinly sliced
2 scallions, green and white parts, thinly sliced

1
Put the eggs in a saucepan with cold water to cover, 1 teaspoon salt, and the vinegar.

Combine the parsley, anchovies, olives, walnuts, and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground.
