Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 tbsp Salt
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 2 units Celery stalks, diced
  • 0.5 cup Red onion, finely chopped
  • 0.5 cup Dill pickles, diced
  • 2 tbsp Fresh dill, chopped
  • 3 units Hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp Paprika (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the Yukon gold potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, about 1-inch pieces.

Step 2

Place the potato chunks in a large pot of cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes or until fork-tender. Be careful not to overcook as they should hold their shape.

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and ground black pepper until smooth.

Step 5

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool slightly for 10 minutes. For extra flavor, sprinkle the potatoes with a pinch of salt while they are still warm.

Step 6

Add the slightly warm potatoes to the mixing bowl with the dressing. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly in the dressing, being careful not to mash them.

Step 7

Fold in the diced celery, red onion, dill pickles, fresh dill, and chopped hard-boiled eggs. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 8

Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 10

Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika and extra fresh dill for a vibrant touch, then serve chilled and enjoy!
