Ina Garten's Old-Fashioned Salad image

This is a simple, easy to prepare potato salad from Ina's book: "The Barefoot Contessa at Home". It's easy to make because you don't have to peel the potatoes; and it's the one she made for the 18 years that she owned the Barefoot Contessa Store.

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 lbs small red potatoes
salt, to taste (kosher)
pepper, to taste (freshly ground)
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk (or white wine)
2 tablespoons mustard, dijon
2 tablespoons mustard, whole grain
1/2 cup fresh dill, chopped
1/2 cup celery, medium- diced
1/2 cup red onion, small-diced

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in boiling water, then lower the heat and simmer water until potatoes are barely tender, about 15 minutes; drain potatoes and keep them warm.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, Dijon and whole grain mustards, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, set aside.
  • When cool enough to handle, cut potatoes into salad-size pieces, into a bowl and pour enough dressing over them to moisten.
  • Add the celery, red onion, 2 teaspoons salt and one teaspoon pepper.
  • Toss well, cover and refrigerate for a few hours for the flavors to marry.

I was a bit hesitant to try this salad because I'm not a big fan of celery, but I'm glad I did. The dressing is amazing and the celery adds a nice crunch.
