Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds waxy potatoes (e.g., Red or Yukon Gold) cubed
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • ¼ cup fresh dill chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar optional
  • 1 cup celery finely chopped
  • ½ cup red onion finely chopped

Instructions

  • Scrub and clean the potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized cubes.
  • In a pot, boil the potato cubes in salted water until fork-tender but still firm (15-20 minutes).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped dill, salt, pepper, and white wine vinegar if using. Mix well.
  • Once the potatoes are cooked and slightly cooled, gently fold them into the dressing.
  • Add chopped celery and red onion to the bowl, ensuring even distribution.
  • Refrigerate the potato salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to cool.
  • Before serving, give the potato salad a final gentle toss to ensure the dressing coats all the ingredients.
  • Garnish with additional dill if desired.
  • Serve the dill potato salad as a refreshing side dish at picnics, barbecues, or family gatherings.

Notes

  1. Choose Waxy Potatoes: Select red or Yukon Gold potatoes for a creamy texture.
  2. Balanced Flavors: Fine-tune mayo, Dijon, and dill for a harmonious taste. Add a hint of white wine vinegar.
  3. Chill Well: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving for enhanced flavors and a refreshing experience.
