Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds Red Bliss potatoes
3 tablespoons coarse salt
1 1/2 ounces Danish blue cheese, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon red-wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives, plus 1 teaspoon for garnish
8 bacon strips, cooked until crisp and crumbled

Steps:

  • Place potatoes and the salt in a medium saucepan. Cover with water, and bring to a simmer. Cook until a knife pierces through potatoes with little resistance, about 12 minutes. Drain, and let cool slightly. Halve potatoes.
  • Meanwhile, mix blue cheese, buttermilk, vinegar, and mustard in a bowl until well combined.
  • Combine potatoes, dressing, chives, and almost all of the bacon in a large bowl. Garnish with blue cheese, chives, and remaining bacon.

I'm glad I tried this recipe. It's a good basic potato salad that I can customize to my own liking.

This potato salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not anything special either.

The blue cheese was too overpowering for me. I think I'll try making this salad with a different type of cheese next time.

This potato salad is way too heavy for my taste. I think I'll stick to my old recipe.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potato salad turned out bland. I think I might have used too much mayonnaise.

This potato salad is so versatile. I've added different ingredients like chopped hard-boiled eggs, celery, or even grilled chicken. It's always a hit.

I'm not a fan of blue cheese, so I substituted feta cheese instead. It was still delicious!
