Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold, red potatoes, or fingerling potatoes, hold their shape well in potato salad and won't get mushy.
  • Boil potatoes until tender: Overcooked potatoes will fall apart in the salad, so be careful not to overcook them. You can check if they are done by piercing them with a fork: if the fork goes through easily, they are done.
  • Cool potatoes completely before adding dressing: This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light hand with the dressing: You don't want the salad to be too heavy or greasy.
  • Add other ingredients to taste: Some common additions to potato salad include celery, onion, hard-boiled eggs, bacon, and pickles. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients to find your favorite combination.
