ARMENIAN POTATO SALAD

I had this potato salad at a small Armenian deli in Glendale. I was impressed by how simple but beautiful and delicious it is. So, I decided to try to duplicate the salad at home. I hope you like my version. I call the dressing "Armenian Salsa" because it's a great topping for lots of other things.

Tips:

  • Use Yukon Gold Potatoes: These potatoes have a creamy texture and hold their shape well, making them ideal for potato salad.
  • Boil Potatoes Until Tender: Avoid overcooking the potatoes, as this will make them mushy.
  • Cool Potatoes Completely: Allow the potatoes to cool completely before adding the dressing, as this will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use Homemade Mayonnaise: If you have the time, making your own mayonnaise is a great way to add flavor to the salad. If using store-bought mayonnaise, choose a high-quality brand.
  • Add Celery and Onion for Crunch: These vegetables add texture and flavor to the salad.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, or chives, brighten up the flavor of the salad.
  • Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the salad and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Chill Before Serving: Chilling the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving allows the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

Armenian potato salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course.
