Description

A hearty and flavorful potato salad that’s perfect for gatherings, combining creamy potatoes with zesty mustard for a nostalgic dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 pounds Yukon Gold or red potatoes
  • 1/2 cup yellow mustard
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
  • 4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Boil the potatoes: Start by scrubbing the potatoes under running water until clean, then cut them into 1-inch cubes. Boil in salted water until fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes.
  2. Drain and cool the potatoes completely. Spread them on a baking sheet to cool faster.
  3. Mix the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together yellow mustard, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Taste and adjust the dressing as needed.
  5. Combine ingredients: Add the cooled potatoes, celery, red onion, and hard-boiled eggs to the dressing.
  6. Toss gently to combine the ingredients without mashing the potatoes.
  7. Add fresh dill and fold gently once more.
  8. Refrigerate the salad for at least an hour or overnight to let flavors meld.
  9. Serve with extra dill or pepper on top for garnish.

Notes

For a vegan option, substitute mayonnaise with a plant-based alternative and hard-boiled eggs with avocado.
