- Picking the best potatoes: Use starchy/waxy Yukon gold potatoes. It’ll hold it’s shape even after cooking, even when it’s soft.
- Taste like classic salad: Remember the classic potato salad recipe tastes? It has that wonderful tangy taste to it. You achieve that by adding a dash of white wine vinegar along with fresh lemon juice. If you don’t like classic tangy taste of this salad, use just lemon juice.
- Mix In herbs: If you storing this salad for a day or two in the fridge, mix in fresh herbs when you are ready to serve. Herbs will be fresh.
- Seasoning to your taste buds: Potatoes take in salt and pepper very well. You cannot serve this salad without generous amount of salt and pepper seasoning. But don’t just stop there, use red chili flakes or smoked paprika if you like a little kick in the salad.
