Ingredients

• 4 medium (about 1.5 pounds) Potatoes
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
• 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
• 1 stalk (finely diced) Celery
• 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) Pickles
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) Scallions
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon (optional, for garnish) Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Wash them thoroughly to remove excess starch.

Step 2

Place the cubed potatoes into the rice cooker bowl and add enough water to fully cover them. Place the eggs on top of the potatoes.

Step 3

Close the rice cooker lid and set it to the 'Cook' function. Cook for approximately 15–20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 4

Once done, carefully remove the eggs and place them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool completely.

Step 5

Peel the eggs and chop them into small pieces.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes and chopped eggs. Add the celery, pickles, and scallions.

Step 7

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

Step 8

Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 11

Before serving, sprinkle with paprika for color and garnish if desired.
