Peel 800 grams of potatoes and steam them in a pressure cooker with a steamer basket and 2 glasses of water.

Close the pot and cook on high until it whistles, then wait for 11 minutes.

Vent the pot and let the potatoes cool before cutting them.

Boil about half a liter of water in a saucepan.

Finely chop a medium-small onion using vertical and horizontal cuts.

Once the water is boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and add the chopped onion, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of vinegar; stir and let it rest for about half an hour.

Cut the cooled potatoes into cubes, ensuring they are cooked but still compact.

Chop 1 clove of garlic coarsely and set aside.

In a blender, add 60 grams of whole milk and 120 grams of seed oil to create an emulsion similar to mayonnaise; blend until thickened.

Add 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of mustard, and 1 tablespoon of vinegar to the emulsion and blend again briefly; then add the minced garlic and blend until combined.

Drain the onions and press to remove excess water, then add them to the potatoes and stir gently.

Slice a dozen pickled gherkins into thin rounds and add them to the salad along with the mayonnaise-like sauce; mix gently.

Chop some chives and add them to the salad along with parsley leaves; mix gently without breaking the potatoes.

Transfer the salad to a plastic container for the picnic.
