Proper hot-smoked knackwurst is a German sausage that's great in a hot dog, but also wonderful in this salad from Matthew Evans, which combines potato, dill pickles, boiled eggs and knackwurst in a mayo-sour cream dressing. This can be served warm, or at room temperature.

This salad is the sum of very democratic ingredients – they all give and take agreeably to balance in perfect harmony. Instead of mayo, this salad brings everything together with a slightly sharp-sweet red wine and honey dressing.

Put a sweet potato twist on the warm salad idea with this barbecued vegetable bowl, which combines the vegetables with mixed spices and a tahini dressing. It's a winner!

Brazilian churrasco, or barbecue, originated from the gaúchos – cowboys from the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul. No churrasco would be complete without a traditional potato salad.
