Instructions
- Add the potatoes to a large pot of boiling salted water and cook for 6 minutes or just until tender.
- Immediately remove them from the boiling water and transfer to a large bowl of ice water to chill them quickly.
- Once cool, strain them and set aside.
- Take about 1/3 to ½ of the potatoes and add them to a large bowl and using a hand masher, roughly mash them.
- Add the remaining potatoes along with the rest of the ingredients and using a rubber spatula fold everything together until it is very well combined.
- Garnish with optional extra paprika and thinly sliced green onions and serve.
Notes
- Chef Notes:
- Make-Ahead: You can make this up to 1 day ahead of time. In addition, it would be best not to dress the potato salad until ready to serve.
- How to Store: Cover and keep cool in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. This recipe will not freeze well.
- The potatoes should be peeled and cut before boiling them.
- Feel free to add or subtract the amount of mustard or mayonnaise to your liking.
- Yukon gold, red bliss, or russet potatoes will work great for this recipe.
- You can absolutely make this without celery.
- If you do not have a red onion, a yellow, sweet, or white onion will do.
- Use my hard-boiled egg recipe for perfect results.
- My bread and butter pickle recipe makes for an excellent relish
- The boiling water should be as salty as the ocean.
