  1. Place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water and boil them for 20 to 30 minutes, or until they easily slide off the tines of a fork and the skins begin to break away from the white potato if cut.
  2. Drain the potatoes, then cut into halves and then into quarters and place in a large bowl Use a large whisk, fork or potato masher to gently smash the potatoes into irregular chunks, but not too fine. Drizzle the warm potatoes with the vinegar.

  4. Add the sauce to the potato mixture with the chopped onions and the remaining dill, and stir gently to combine. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours or overnight.

Notes

  • Be sure to cook your red potatoes until they are easily pierced with a fork and the skin begins to pull away from the potato. This will ensure the potatoes are soft enough to smash, adding to the creaminess of the salad.
