Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality potatoes. Yukon Gold or Red Bliss potatoes are ideal, as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Be sure to boil the potatoes until they are tender, but not mushy. You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork.
  • Allow the potatoes to cool slightly before adding the other ingredients. This will help to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light hand when mixing the salad. Overmixing can cause the potatoes to break down and become mushy.
  • Taste the salad and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or vinegar to taste.
  • Serve the salad immediately, or chill it for later. It will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
