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!

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.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potato salad turned out lumpy. I think I overcooked the potatoes.

This potato salad is a bit too mayonnaise-y for my taste. I think I would prefer a dressing with less mayonnaise and more vinegar.

I've never been a fan of potato salad, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so creamy and flavorful, and the dill gives it a nice tang.

I'm not a big fan of dill, so I substituted parsley in this recipe. It turned out great!

This potato salad is a great make-ahead dish. I like to make it the night before a party or potluck, so the flavors have time to meld.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my potato salad turned out too bland. I think I should have added more salt and pepper.
