Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Scrub potatoes, but do not peel. Cover with water, and boil in a covered pot 10 to 17 minutes, depending on their size. If you cannot find tiny new potatoes, use large ones and cut them up.

  2. Step 2

    Wash and trim the green beans, and steam for 5 to 7 minutes, until they are tender but still firm.

  3. Step 3

    Shuck corn, and scrape off kernels.

  4. Step 4

    Wash, trim and seed the whole peppers, and chop finely. Finely chop whole onion.

  5. Step 5

    In a serving bowl, combine the yogurt, mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper.

  6. Step 6

    Drain the green beans, reserving the cooking water, and run the beans under cold water.

  7. Step 7

    Cook the corn 1 or 2 minutes in the water the beans were steamed over.

  8. Step 8

    Cut the beans into 1-inch pieces, and add to the dressing with the peppers and onions. Drain the corn, and stir into dressing.

  9. Step 9

    When the potatoes are cooked, drain, run under cold water and slice thinly; stir into the salad.
