Description

This Perfect Picnic Potato Salad brings irresistible flavor with a simple preparation. With tender yellow potatoes, hearty eggs, and a creamy dressing, it’s perfect for gatherings or a comforting meal at home.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds small yellow potatoes, skin on, scrubbed
  • 12 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/41/2 medium red onion, finely chopped, about 1/3 cup
  • 3 stalks celery, finely chopped
  • 3 hard boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon mustard of choice
  • 1/23/4 cup mayo, or to taste
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Season generously with salt and bring to a boil.
  2. Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 25-30 minutes until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork.
  3. Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly. When they are cool enough to handle, peel off the skins.
  4. Roughly chop the potatoes into bite-sized pieces and transfer them to a large bowl.

Notes

For extra flavor, refrigerate the salad for a few hours before serving.
Adjust the level of mayo to suit your taste preferences.
Feel free to add other veggies or herbs for a personal touch.
