Description

A timeless classic, this potato salad features tender potatoes, crisp vegetables, and a creamy dressing. Perfect for picnics, gatherings, or as a delicious side to any meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup dill pickles, diced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool.
  2. Meanwhile, place eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes. Drain, cool under cold water, peel, and chop.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Add the cooled potatoes, chopped eggs, celery, red onion, dill pickles, and parsley to the bowl. Gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors meld. Garnish with extra parsley as desired and serve chilled.
