RED POTATO SALAD

This pretty red potato salad has great flavor. Goes well with a summer barbeque, or anytime! For a tangy twist, try using plain fat-free yogurt in place of some or all of the sour cream. Garnish with additional sliced hard-boiled eggs, if desired.

NEW POTATO SALAD

Categories     side-dish

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pounds small red potatoes
Kosher salt
1 cup good mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk, milk, or white wine
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped red onion

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes and 2 tablespoons of salt in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Allow the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, dill, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Set aside. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into quarters or halves, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. While the potatoes are still warm, pour enough dressing over them to moisten. (As the salad sits, you may need to add more dressing.) Add the celery and red onion, 2 teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss well, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Time 22m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 lbs small red potatoes
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup sour cream or 1/2 cup creme fraiche
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup fresh basil, cut into thin strips
1/4 cup minced fresh italian flat leaf parsley
1 clove garlic, finely minced
2 tablespoons vinegar (I use white wine vinegar)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Cover potatoes with lightly salted water and add lemon juice.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook potatoes until tender when pierced with the point of a knife, about 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Boil the potatoes until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and fall apart in the salad.
  • Use a variety of colorful potatoes, such as red potatoes, Yukon Gold potatoes, or fingerling potatoes. This will add visual appeal to the salad.
  • Chop the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. This will make them easier to eat and will also help the dressing to evenly coat the potatoes.
  • Use a light and tangy dressing. A mayonnaise-based dressing is a classic choice, but you can also use a vinaigrette or a yogurt-based dressing.
  • Add some fresh herbs to the salad, such as dill, parsley, or chives. This will brighten up the flavor of the salad.
  • Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and will also make the salad more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Red potato salad is a classic summer dish that is perfect for potlucks, picnics, and barbecues. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy dressing, tender potatoes, and fresh herbs, red potato salad is a surefire crowd-pleaser.
