ARMENIAN POTATO SALAD

I had this potato salad at a small Armenian deli in Glendale. I was impressed by how simple but beautiful and delicious it is. So, I decided to try to duplicate the salad at home. I hope you like my version. I call the dressing "Armenian Salsa" because it's a great topping for lots of other things.

Tips:

  • Use waxy potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better when boiled, making them ideal for potato salad.
  • Boil potatoes until tender but not mushy: Overcooked potatoes will become too soft and fall apart in the salad.
  • Cool potatoes completely before adding other ingredients: This will prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light hand when dressing the salad: You don't want the potato salad to be too heavy or greasy.
  • Add vegetables and herbs to your liking: This recipe is a great base for customization. Try adding diced celery, carrots, red onion, or fresh herbs like parsley or dill.

Conclusion:

This Armenian potato salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. So next time you are looking for a simple but satisfying salad, give this recipe a try.
