No one will miss the mayo in this zesty potato salad, and being mayo-free means it holds up at an outdoor party. We use lemon juice, tangy vinegar, sliced cornichons, and plenty of fresh dill to give sliced eggs and chunky potatoes a lively zing in this tasty side dish.

Time 35m

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 shallots, peeled and thinly sliced lengthwise (3/4 cup)
2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup sliced cornichons
2/3 cup lightly packed chopped fresh dill
4 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, soak shallots in cold water 5 minutes; drain. Toss with vinegar and lemon juice. Let stand 15 minutes.
  • In a large pot, cover potatoes by at least 2 inches of water; season generously with salt. Bring to a boil; cook until potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, stir mustard and oil into shallot mixture; season with salt and pepper. Drain potatoes; add to bowl while still warm, gently stirring until evenly coated in dressing. Let stand until no longer warm, about 1 hour, or cover and refrigerate up to 2 days. Before serving, gently fold in cornichons, dill, and eggs.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use Yukon Gold or red potatoes, as they hold their shape well when boiled.
  • To save time, you can boil the potatoes and eggs the day before and store them in the refrigerator.
  • If you don't have fresh dill, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried dill.
  • Add-ins like bacon, ham, or cheese can be added to the salad for extra flavor and texture.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Dill potato and egg salad is a classic summer dish that is perfect for potlucks, picnics, and barbecues. It's easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The creamy dressing, tender potatoes, and fresh dill make this salad a refreshing and flavorful side dish or light lunch.
