Description
A classic, creamy potato salad with eggs, pickles, and a tangy dressing, offering the perfect balance of flavors and textures for any occasion.
Ingredients
4 medium-sized potatoes (red or yellow)
4 large eggs
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 cup dill pickles, diced
1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Wash, peel, and cut potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, bring to a boil, and cook for 10-12 minutes, until tender but firm. Drain and let cool.
- In a separate pot, cover eggs with water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 10-12 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath, then peel and chop them.
- In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Add the cooled potatoes and chopped eggs to the dressing. Toss in diced pickles, red onion, celery, and parsley. Gently fold everything together, being careful not to mash the potatoes.
- Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld together.
- After chilling, serve the potato salad cold and enjoy!
Notes
Use Yukon Gold potatoes for a buttery flavor or sweet potatoes for a twist.
Substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt for a tangier, lighter option, or try vegan mayonnaise for a dairy-free version.
Feel free to add extra vegetables like peas, carrots, or bell peppers for added crunch and color.
