Steps:
- Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with lightly salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until just tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes, and allow to cool to room temperature. Dice once cooled.
- Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow to cool, and crumble the bacon into a large bowl.
- Place the cooled potatoes into the bowl with the bacon, and mix in the sour cream, mayonnaise, Cheddar cheese, chives, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate overnight before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in a baking dish and put in the center of the oven. Bake until the potatoes are tender and can be pierced with the tip of a knife, about 50 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the parsley and basil in a food processor or blender. Season with salt and white pepper, add 2 tablespoons water and blend. With the motor running, pour the olive oil through the top in a slow, steady stream. Add the sugar and taste for seasoning. Pulse to combine and set aside. (This doesn't need to be a smooth puree: It should be a little rustic and chunky.)
- In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, shallots, mustard, capers and brine, and the gherkins and brine. Add half of the parsley-basil puree and toss. Taste for seasoning.
- When the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Peel half of the potatoes (some skin adds a nice flavor to the salad). Cut any big potatoes into quarters and cut the rest in half. Put the potatoes in the bowl with the dressing; season lightly with salt and pepper and gently toss. Serve at room temperature with the remaining herb puree on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Wash potatoes and prick them with a fork or knife.
- Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour or until they are fork tender. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
- At this point you can peel all of them, or peel half of them and leave the skin on the other half to get a real baked potato feel. Cut the potatoes into small, pieces.
- Combine the sour cream and mayonnaise in a bowl and stir well.
- Add the potatoes to a large serving bowl. Season well with salt and pepper. Add the sauce (just enough to coat them well--you may not use it all) and gently stir to coat.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes for your potato salad. These varieties hold their shape well and have a creamy texture that's perfect for this dish.
- Be sure to prick the potatoes all over with a fork before baking. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from bursting.
- To make sure your potato salad is nice and creamy, use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until they are smooth. You can also use a ricer for a finer texture.
- Don't overdress your potato salad. You want the potatoes to be the star of the show, so use a light hand with the dressing.
- If you're making potato salad ahead of time, be sure to store it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
Conclusion:
Baked potato salad is a classic dish that's perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, delicious, and always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a side dish that's sure to impress, give this recipe a try.
