DILLY POTATO SALAD



Dilly Potato Salad image

This is a recipe I stumbled upon while surfing the web many years ago. It remains one of the best potato salads I've ever had. A departure from the usual eggs/mustard/pickles type of salad, it is best made with buttery new potatoes. A starchy potato like a Russet is not the best to use because it 1) does not keep it's shape very well when tossed and 2) the starchier the potato the less flavor it has and the more seasoning it needs. Family members have been known to fight over the last serving of this salad!

Categories     Potato

Time 4h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 lbs new potatoes
2 cups mayonnaise
2 cups sour cream
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon salt (to taste)
black pepper
2 dashes Tabasco sauce (optional)
3 tablespoons dried dill
1/2 cup finely chopped green onion

Steps:

  • 1. Clean, cut up, and boil potatoes in salted water to cover until tender but not falling apart.
  • 2. Drain and set aside to cool slightly but don't chill.
  • 3. Blend next 7 ingredients in food processor then stir in dillweed. Taste the dressing for seasoning and adjust to your taste. Remember seasonings, especially salt, tend to lose some of their flavor when chilled.
  • 4. Stir in green onions.
  • 5. While potatoes are warm, stir in half the dressing. Chill both salad and dressing until serving time. Just before serving time stir in enough of the remaining dressing to make the salad as creamy as you like it.
  • 6. This salad is best made several hours before serving.

Tips:

  • Boil potatoes until tender but not mushy. Overcooked potatoes will break apart and make the salad less appetizing.
  • Use a variety of potato types for a more flavorful salad. Yukon Gold, red, and fingerling potatoes all work well.
  • Cool potatoes completely before adding them to the salad. Warm potatoes will wilt the other ingredients and make the salad less refreshing.
  • Use a creamy mayonnaise-based dressing. Miracle Whip or sour cream can also be used, but mayonnaise will give the salad a richer flavor.
  • Add plenty of fresh dill. Dill is the star of this salad, so don't be shy about using it.
  • Season the salad to taste with salt and pepper. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of cayenne pepper for a little extra flavor.
  • Serve the salad chilled. Potato salad is best enjoyed cold, so make it ahead of time and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.

Conclusion:

Dilly potato salad is a classic summer side dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy dressing, tender potatoes, and fresh dill, it's the perfect dish to bring to a potluck or barbecue. So next time you're looking for a simple but delicious salad recipe, give dilly potato salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
