Dijon Mustard Vinaigrette:
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, both mustards, minced garlic, and dill pickle juice. Season with salt and pepper. Adjust seasonings and acidity as needed to desired taste.
Salad:
In a large bowl, add the slightly cooled potatoes, parsley, dill, green onions, shallot, and pickles. Pour the vinaigrette over the potatoes; gently toss until everything is well coated. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
Serve the salad warm or cold. If serving it cold, allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour so that the flavors meld.
