POTATO SALAD

Our favorite Potato Salad with Yukon gold potatoes, celery, pickles, hard-boiled eggs, sweet onion, and the best creamy dressing with fresh chives.

Provided by Chelsea Lords

Categories     Salad

Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 pounds baby Yukon gold potatoes ((See Note 1))
Fine sea salt and freshly cracked pepper
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, (divided)
3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons regular mayonnaise ((we like Best Foods/Hellman's))
1/3 cup sour cream
1/2 cup sweet pickle relish
1 tablespoon yellow mustard (not Dijon mustard)
1 and 1/2 teaspoons celery seed
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 stalks celery, (finely diced (~1 cup; 117g))
4 hard-boiled eggs, (coarsely chopped)
1/2 cup bread and butter pickles, (finely diced)
1/4 cup sweet onion, (finely diced)
Optional: 1-2 tablespoons fresh chives or freshly chopped parsley, additional paprika

Steps:

  • COOK POTATOES: Wash potatoes (no need to chop yet!). Add potatoes to a large pot, cover with 1 and 1/2 inches of cold water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, salt the water (add 1 teaspoon salt for every 4 cups of water.) Then reduce the heat to medium-low so potatoes are simmering (potatoes will cook at the same speed). Simmer for 12-17 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork (about 13-14 minutes for me).
  • FINISHING POTATOES: Meanwhile, set up an ice bath. Add cold water to a large bowl filled with ice. Drain the potatoes and immediately add them to the ice bath. Once cooled, drain thoroughly and transfer to a cutting board. Chop the potatoes into bite-sized (1-inch) chunks and add to a large bowl. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of the apple cider vinegar over potatoes and add a pinch of salt. Toss and set aside.
  • DRESSING: In a medium-sized bowl, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, mayo, sour cream, pickle relish, yellow mustard, celery seed, paprika, salt, and pepper to taste (I add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper). Whisk until smooth and combined.
  • ASSEMBLY: Coarsely chop the hard-boiled eggs (See Note 2), finely chop the celery, the pickles, and the sweet onion. Add to the large bowl with the potatoes. Pour the dressing over everything and gently stir to combine. Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours before eating. Garnish with fresh chives or parsley if desired.

CREAMY DIJON-DILL POTATO SALAD



Creamy Dijon-Dill Potato Salad image

I guess I'm sticking to the classic salads for my BBQ, and there's nothing more classic BBQ than a good home-style potato salad. Mine is rich in flavor, but still light and fresh, thanks in large part to the dill and lemon juice. The vibrant green dill also does wonders for the look of the salad. There's nothing worse than mushy, mealy potatoes, so make sure to start your spuds off in cold water and to cook them whole.

Provided by Dave Lieberman

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 stalks celery
1 cup mayonnaise
1 small red onion, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup tightly packed chopped fresh dill
1 to 2 tablespoons vinegar
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon grainy or regular Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a big pot with enough water to cover by 1-inch. Season with salt and bring the water to a boil. Cook just until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 25 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes and return them to the uncovered pot off the heat. Let them sit until almost room temperature. (Cooling them in the warm pot will get rid of any excess water in the potatoes, and that's good.)
  • Meanwhile, cut the white parts off the ends of the celery stalks. Cut the stalks in half lengthwise, then across into 1/4-inch slices. Stir the celery, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and the remaining ingredients together in a serving bowl large enough to hold all the potatoes.
  • When they're cool, cut the potatoes into 1-inch pieces, add them to the bowl as you go. Stir gently until all the potatoes are coated with dressing. You can make the salad up to a couple of hours in advance. Keep covered at room temperature. Don't refrigerate or the potatoes will lose their rich, smooth texture.

NEW POTATO SALAD

Categories     side-dish

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pounds small red potatoes
Kosher salt
1 cup good mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk, milk, or white wine
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped red onion

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes and 2 tablespoons of salt in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Allow the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, dill, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Set aside. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into quarters or halves, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. While the potatoes are still warm, pour enough dressing over them to moisten. (As the salad sits, you may need to add more dressing.) Add the celery and red onion, 2 teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss well, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.

MARINATED POTATO SALAD



Marinated Potato Salad image

A different type of potato salad. It is slightly sweet. I have a favorite recipe with mustard, but sometimes, this just seems appropriate. Cook and prep time does not include 12 hour marinating time.

Provided by Ms B.

Categories     Potato

Time 35m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 lbs potatoes
1 cup water
1 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 bunch green onion, sliced
3 hard-boiled eggs, diced
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon celery seed
2 cups mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of the potatoes, boil them with skins on and only peel and cut them after they have cooled down.
  • For a creamy and flavorful dressing, use a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and Dijon mustard. Add some herbs and spices, such as dill, chives, celery seeds, and black pepper, to taste.
  • To add sweetness and crunch, include some chopped celery and carrots in the salad. You can also add other vegetables, such as peas, green beans, or radishes, to your liking.
  • If you want a more tangy flavor, add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to the dressing. You can also add some chopped pickles or capers for a briny flavor.
  • For a smoky flavor, roast the potatoes in the oven before adding them to the salad. You can also add some smoked paprika or bacon bits to the dressing.
  • To make a vegan version of the salad, use vegan mayonnaise and sour cream or a plant-based alternative. You can also add some tofu or tempeh for protein.
