Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes (if desired, leave the skin on for added texture) and cut them into 1-inch chunks.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly. Transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, and honey until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the slightly warm potatoes. Gently toss to coat the potatoes evenly.
Add the diced celery, chopped red onion, fresh parsley, and hard-boiled eggs to the potatoes. Gently fold everything together.
Taste and season with black pepper, adjusting as desired. Add more salt if needed.
Refrigerate the potato salad for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld together.
Before serving, sprinkle with paprika (if using) for added color and flavor.
Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy!
