Creamy Potato Salad
Serves: 8 cups
 
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 3⁄4 cup chopped baby dill pickles
  • 1⁄2 cup chopped red onion
  • 4 large eggs, hard-cooked and chopped
  • 3⁄4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1⁄4 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Garnish: chopped hard-cooked egg, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
  1. In a large stockpot, bring potatoes, 2 tablespoons salt, and water to cover to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until potatoes are just tender, about 15 minutes. Drain potatoes, and let cool completely. Cut potatoes into 1⁄2-inch pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, toss together cooled potatoes, celery, pickles, onion, and eggs.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, mustard, dill, vinegar, pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Add mayonnaise mixture to potato mixture, gently tossing until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with egg and parsley, if desired.
