  • 1 tablespoon Salt
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
  • 2 pieces Celery stalks, finely chopped
  • 0.5 cup Red onion, finely diced
  • 0.25 cup Dill pickles, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, finely chopped (optional)
  • 3 pieces Hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes, and cut them into bite-sized chunks.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add 1 tablespoon of salt.

Step 3

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes or until they are fork-tender.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool completely.

Step 5

While the potatoes cool, prepare the dressing in a large mixing bowl by combining the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth.

Step 6

Once the potatoes are cool, gently fold them into the dressing, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.

Step 7

Add the finely chopped celery stalks, red onion, dill pickles, parsley, and optional dill to the bowl. Mix to combine.

Step 8

Fold in the chopped hard-boiled eggs carefully to avoid breaking them up too much.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 10

Transfer the potato salad to a serving dish and sprinkle with paprika for garnish.

Step 11

Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld before serving.

Step 12

Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious, creamy Favorite Potato Salad!
