Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger potatoes in half, leaving smaller ones whole, to ensure even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook the potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the mustard vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and emulsified.
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the mustard vinaigrette over the warm potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly.
Add the chopped parsley and green onions to the bowl, then toss again to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the potato salad warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Enjoy!
