Directions

Put the potatoes in a saucepan and add cold water to cover by ½ inch.
Add the bay leaves and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to simmer and cook until the potatoes are just tender, about 10 minutes.
Remove from the heat and allow the potatoes to cool in the water.
Drain, removing and discarding bay leaves.
Whisk the mustard and red wine vinegar together in a small bowl to form an emulsion.
Continue whisking while slowly adding the olive oil in a thin, steady stream.
Season the vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
Just before serving, combine the potatoes, celery, figs, red onion, parsley, tarragon, and green olives in a large bowl, add the vinaigrette, and toss to coat.
Taste, season with salt and pepper if necessary, and serve.
