Steps:
- In a wide skillet, add the scallions, drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and cook over high heat on each side until charred and soft, about 2 minutes on each side.
- Chop the cooked scallions and place them in a medium bowl. Grate the clove of garlic over the scallions. The heat from the scallions will mellow out the garlic.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the canola oil and when it shimmers, add the quartered potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, tossing the potatoes every 2 minutes to make sure they brown on all sides, for 7 to 10 minutes total.
- While the potatoes are browning, remove the rind of the lemon with a vegetable peeler, making sure to leave out the white pith of the lemon peel. Finely mince the lemon zest and reserve for garnish.
- Combine 3/4 cup of the sour cream, the juice of the lemon and half of the chopped bunch of chives in a small bowl.
- For the dressing, combine the remaining 1/4 cup of the sour cream with the white wine vinegar and charred-scallion-and-garlic mixture in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and stream in 1/4 cup of the olive oil, whisking continuously to create a creamy relish-like dressing.
- Add the crispy potatoes to the dressing and toss to coat.
- Spread the lemony sour-cream-and-chives mixture on a large plate, place the dressed potatoes on top and garnish with the remaining half bunch of chopped chives and the lemon zest and Parmesan cheese.
- Enjoy.
SOUR CREAM AND ONION POTATO SALAD

Steps:
- Place potatoes in a large pot and pour in 3 qt. water to cover. Add 1 cup salt and bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. (Yes, this is a lot of salt, but it's the right amount to ensure potatoes are seasoned through and through.) Reduce heat and simmer, adjusting heat as needed, until potatoes until fork-tender, 15-20 minutes. Scoop out ½ cup potato cooking liquid and set aside. Drain potatoes in a colander and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, onion powder, mustard, and pepper in a large bowl and mix well to combine. Add garlic and half of chives and mix just to incorporate.
- Place red onion in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse for several seconds to take away some of its raw bite. Pat dry with paper towels. Mix half of onion into dressing; set aside remaining onion for serving.
- Working one at a time, set potatoes on a flat surface and crush slightly with the palm of your hand. Add to bowl with dressing along with ¼ cup potato cooking liquid. Do this while the potatoes are still warm so that they can absorb all of the seasoning. Don't worry if the dressing looks a little loose and watery at the beginning-it will all get absorbed and become creamier as it sits. Taste and season with more salt or, if your dressing looks too thick, a splash of potato cooking liquid.
- Top potatoes with remaining chives and reserved onion and crumble potato chips over.
SOUR CREAM & HORSERADISH POTATO SALAD
I keep this recipe in a bunch of my favorite hand-written recipes. It says it came from the Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook, although I can't find it there now. In any event, this is the only way I fix potato salad. It has a more tangy flavor than most potato salads (even with no pickles!) and it's wonderful when served with anything barbequed. Cook time is cooking and chilling time.

POTATO SALAD WITH SOUR CREAM AND BACON
Mom always added sour cream, bacon and bacon drippings to her potato salad and folks loved it. I've dressed it up a little, adding celery, different spices and more eggs than she did. Mom, of course, never measured. In order to post I measured all the ingredients and must say I have given mom a run for her money. Hope you enjoy.

SOUR CREAM POTATO SALAD
Steps:
- Boil 5 lbs. of Potatoes until just soft for dicing, cut bell peppers into small pieces, prepare the green onions (chopped), fold in the Sour Cream, add diced Potatoes. Salt to taste and add black pepper.
Tips:
- Use Yukon Gold potatoes: Their waxy texture holds its shape well in potato salad.
- Boil potatoes until tender-firm: You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork, but they should not be mushy.
- Cool potatoes completely: This will help prevent the potato salad from becoming watery.
- Use a light hand with the mayonnaise: You don't want the potato salad to be too heavy or greasy.
- Add your favorite mix-ins: Chopped celery, onions, hard-boiled eggs, and bacon are all popular additions.
- Chill potato salad before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and make the salad more refreshing.
Conclusion:
This sour cream potato salad is a classic summer side dish that is always a crowd-pleaser. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy, tangy dressing and tender-firm potatoes, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or barbecue.
