Instructions

1

Cook the potatoes: Peel and cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-12 minutes until tender but not mushy. Drain and let cool slightly.

2

Boil the eggs: While the potatoes cook, place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes. Transfer to ice water, peel, and chop.

3

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

4

Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, gently mix the cooked potatoes, chopped eggs, diced celery, red onion, and fresh dill.

5

Add the dressing: Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and fold gently until everything is evenly coated.

6

Chill and serve: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld. Garnish with extra dill if desired.

Chef's Tips

  • Potato Choice: Yukon Gold potatoes hold their shape well and have a creamy texture, perfect for potato salad.
  • Don’t Overcook: Be careful not to overcook the potatoes; they should be tender but still firm.
  • Make Ahead: This salad tastes even better the next day as the flavors develop.
  • Add-Ins: For extra crunch, add diced pickles or a sprinkle of paprika.
  • Vegan Option: Substitute mayonnaise with vegan mayo and omit the eggs.
