Ingredients

Servings

For the potatoes:

  • 3 pounds potato baby or new
  • 6 celery finely diced, plus celery heart leaves for garnish, stalks
  • 2 shallot minced
  • 1/2 cup Italian parsley chopped, fresh
  • 1/2 cup dill chopped, plus dill sprigs for garnish, fresh
  • 6 green onion thinly sliced, aka scallions
  • black pepper to preference
  • sea salt to preference

For the dressing:

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt full-fat
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic grated
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 lemon zested and juiced
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and heavily season with salt. Carefully place whole potatoes in the water and boil until fork tender, about 8-10 minutes. (Do not overcook, or you will get a mushy potato salad).
  2. Once potatoes are cooked, strain the potatoes and run them under cold water. Lay them on a sheet tray with paper towels to dry, then transfer to a bowl and chill in the fridge for 2 hours, or overnight.
  3. Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, make the dressing. Whisk together the yogurt, sour cream, whole grain mustard, grated garlic, extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, & pepper until mixed together thoroughly. Wrap bowl in plastic, or transfer dressing to a sealed container and chill for 2 hours, or overnight.
  4. Cut chilled potatoes into quarter wedges, and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Gently toss the potatoes with the celery, shallots, parsley, dill, and green onions.
  5. Pour about 2/3 of the yogurt dressing over the potato mixture and gently mix until the potato salad is evening mixed and coated. Taste and add more dressing if desired. (Or serve additional dressing on the side to drizzle over the top of individual plate portions.)
  6. Transfer potato salad to a serving bowl or platter. Sprinkle with cracked black pepper, sea salt, and garnish with celery heart leaves & fresh dill sprigs.

Notes

  • This dish is best when made the day before, stored in separate containers, and chilled overnight, then mixed together just before serving. If it's all mixed together and then stored overnight and served the next day, the potatoes absorb a lot of the salt and flavor, so you will need to add more seasoning the next day. The salt will also leach out additional moisture from the potatoes, yogurt, and sour cream overnight, so it will pool on the bottom and loses its creaminess.
