Ingredients

• 2 pounds red potatoes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup mayonnaise
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 3 tablespoons fresh dill
• 3 stalks green onions (sliced thinly)
• 1 stalk celery (chopped)
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon paprika (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the red potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Leave the skins on for added color and texture.

Step 2

Cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks, approximately 1-inch in size.

Step 3

Place the potatoes in a large pot and add water to cover them by about 1 inch. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.

Step 4

Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not mushy.

Step 5

Drain the potatoes in a colander and allow them to cool for about 15 minutes.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by combining the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, fresh dill, black pepper, and an additional pinch of salt. Whisk the mixture until smooth.

Step 7

Once the potatoes are cool, add them to the mixing bowl with the dressing. Gently fold the potatoes until they are evenly coated, being careful not to mash them.

Step 8

Add the chopped celery and sliced green onions to the bowl. Fold gently to incorporate the vegetables throughout the salad.

Step 9

Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your preference.

Step 10

Transfer the salad to a serving bowl and sprinkle with paprika, if desired, for a touch of color.

Step 11

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

Step 12

Serve cold or at room temperature and enjoy your Red Skin Dill Potato Salad!
