Put a kitchen towel over the colander and allow the potatoes to steam for 10 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel the potatoes and slice 1/2 inch thick. Place the potatoes in a mixing bowl. Meanwhile, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, vinegar, 2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper. While the potatoes are still warm, pour the dressing over the potatoes and toss well. Add the scallions, red onion, tarragon, and dill and toss gently. Allow the salad to sit for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to develop. Sprinkle with salt and serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked or frozen green beans and potatoes. You can also use a combination of fresh and frozen vegetables.
  • If you're using fresh green beans, trim the ends and cut them into 2-inch pieces. Boil the green beans in a large pot of salted water for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly crunchy. Drain the green beans and rinse them with cold water.
  • To save even more time, use baby potatoes that don't need to be peeled. If you're using larger potatoes, peel and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Boil the potatoes in a large pot of salted water for 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender but still hold their shape. Drain the potatoes and rinse them with cold water.
  • While the vegetables are cooking, hard-boil the eggs. Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-12 minutes. Drain the eggs and rinse them with cold water.
  • To make the dressing, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, vinegar, and sugar until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Once the vegetables and eggs are cool, combine them in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Serve the potato salad immediately or chill it for later.
