Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 large eggs
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/3 cup chopped dill pickles, plus 2 tablespoons brine
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3 stalks celery, chopped
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Paprika, for topping

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large saucepan; cover with cold water and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add the vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt; toss. Let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and let sit, covered, 10 minutes. Drain the eggs and cover with ice water to cool; peel, chop and set aside.

Season with salt and pepper. Add the hard-boiled eggs and gently stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight. Sprinkle with paprika just before serving.

Steps:

  • Boil, peel and cube 2 pounds russet potatoes; toss with 2 tablespoons cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix 2 cups mayonnaise, 2 chopped scallions, 1 chopped celery stalk, 1 tablespoon each dijon mustard and vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, and salt. Toss with the potatoes.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use Yukon Gold potatoes. They hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Make sure the potatoes are fully cooked before adding them to the salad. Otherwise, they will be hard and unpleasant to eat.
  • Use a mayonnaise-based dressing for a classic potato salad or try a vinaigrette based dressing for a lighter version.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins to the salad, such as chopped celery, onion, hard-boiled eggs, or bacon. You could also mix in some herbs, such as parsley, chives or dill.
  • Serve the potato salad chilled for the best flavor.
