Tips:
- Use a variety of potatoes. This will give your potato salad a more interesting texture and flavor. Good options include Yukon Gold, red potatoes, and fingerling potatoes.
- Cook the potatoes until they are just tender. You don't want them to be too soft, or they will fall apart when you mix them with the other ingredients.
- Let the potatoes cool slightly before adding the other ingredients. This will help to prevent the potato salad from becoming too watery.
- Use a light hand when mixing the potato salad. You don't want to overmix it, or the potatoes will become mashed.
- Season the potato salad to taste. Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings until the salad is flavorful.
- Chill the potato salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the salad to become more firm.
