Tips:

Choosing the Right Potatoes: Opt for waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, as they hold their shape well in potato salad.
Cooking the Potatoes: Cook the potatoes until they are just tender but still firm, as they will continue to cook slightly when mixed with the dressing.
Cooling the Potatoes: Allow the potatoes to cool completely before adding them to the dressing. This will prevent the dressing from becoming too runny.
Mayo-Based Dressing: Use a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and mustard for a classic potato salad dressing. Add some chopped celery, onion, and hard-boiled eggs for extra flavor and texture.
Vinegar-Based Dressing: For a tangy twist, try a vinegar-based dressing made with olive oil, vinegar (such as apple cider vinegar or white vinegar), Dijon mustard, and herbs like dill or parsley.
Add-Ins: Feel free to mix in other ingredients like chopped bacon, crumbled hard-boiled eggs, chopped pickles, or even diced vegetables like carrots, celery, or cucumbers.
Chilling: After assembling the potato salad, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and develop.
