Perfect No Mayonnaise Italian Potato Salad

This recipe is one I created for a big cookout picnic
my family was having one hot July 4th summer day.
It's perfect to serve on a hot summer day because,
it's a very different potato salad with no mayonnaise.
I kept it cool in an ice filled cooler, covered, the whole day.

Ingredients:
3 pounds small red potatoes, cut in half
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
3 celery stalks, finely chopped
8 slices cooked bacon, crumbled into small pieces
4-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil or 2 teaspoons dried
2 teaspoons caraway seeds
1/4 cup of a good olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt or to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions:
In a large saucepan, cover potatoes with cold water by an inch.
Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low,
and simmer until the potatoes are just cooked through.
Drain well in a colander and let cool.
Add the onion, celery, bacon, red peppers,
parsley, basil, caraway seeds and salt and pepper to taste.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar,
mustard and the salt and pepper.
Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss.
Serve immediately or keep cold in a refrigerator.
