Indulge in a culinary delight with our tantalizing Zesty Dijon Potato Salad, a perfect accompaniment to your summer gatherings or a refreshing side dish for any occasion. This vibrant salad combines the classic flavors of creamy potatoes with a tangy Dijon mustard dressing, creating a harmonious balance of flavors.
With just a few simple steps, you can whip up this delectable salad in no time. Delicate baby potatoes are boiled until tender, then tossed with a medley of crisp celery, sweet red onion, and fresh parsley, adding a delightful contrast in texture and flavor. The creamy Dijon dressing, made with a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, grainy Dijon mustard, and a hint of white wine vinegar, coats each potato and vegetable, infusing them with a zesty and tangy flavor.
For those seeking a vegan alternative, we offer a delightful Vegan Zesty Dijon Potato Salad, where mayonnaise and sour cream are skillfully replaced with silken tofu and a touch of lemon juice, resulting in a creamy and flavorful dressing that is equally satisfying.
Additionally, if you prefer a warm and comforting potato salad, try our Warm Dijon Potato Salad with Bacon, a hearty dish that combines all the classic flavors of Dijon potato salad with the smoky goodness of bacon and a hint of aromatic rosemary.
And for those who love a touch of heat, our Spicy Dijon Potato Salad adds a kick to the traditional recipe with the inclusion of spicy brown mustard and a sprinkle of cayenne pepper, creating a dish that is both flavorful and fiery.
No matter your preference, our collection of Zesty Dijon Potato Salads offers something for every palate, ensuring you find the perfect side dish to elevate your next meal.
CREAMY DIJON-DILL POTATO SALAD
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.

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.
POTATO SALAD WITH DIJON VINAIGRETTE
There's nothing complicated about this potato salad - it's really just boiled red potatoes tossed with a simple Dijon mustard vinaigrette and a generous smattering of scallions and fresh herbs - and that's the beauty of it. It's served cold or at room temperature, and its flavor gets better as it sits, making it an ideal dish to bring to a potluck or a picnic.

Steps:
- Make the mayonnaise: Put the egg yolks in a food processor and add the vinegar, mustard and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Turn on the machine and very slowly start to drizzle in the oil (drip until the mixture starts to look like mayonnaise, then you can start adding it in a slow, steady stream). If the mayonnaise is too thick, add a few drops of water; if it is not thick enough, add a little more oil with the motor running.
- Make the salad: Put the potatoes and garlic in a large pot. Add enough water to cover the potatoes by 2 inches and season generously with salt. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until fork-tender, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the bacon in the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the onion, celery and vinegar. Season with salt.
- Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a large bowl (discard the garlic). Add the bacon-onion mixture to the hot potatoes and stir to incorporate. Gently stir in 1 1/2 cups mayonnaise and the mustard and season with salt. Refrigerate until cold.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes. Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Golds or red potatoes, hold their shape well and won't become mushy in the salad. Russet potatoes are not a good choice for this salad, as they are too starchy and will fall apart.
- Cook the potatoes properly. The potatoes should be cooked until they are tender, but not overcooked. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Let the potatoes cool completely before adding them to the salad. This will help to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
- Use a good quality Dijon mustard. The Dijon mustard is the key ingredient in this salad, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a Dijon mustard that is made with whole grain mustard seeds and has a sharp, tangy flavor.
- Don't overdress the salad. The salad should be dressed just enough to coat the potatoes and vegetables. Overdressing the salad will make it soggy and bland.
Conclusion:
This Zesty Dijon Potato Salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your potato salad tangy, creamy, or somewhere in between, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy side dish, give this Zesty Dijon Potato Salad a try!
