Red Potato Salad

Red Potato Salad

Diana Rattray
This potato salad is made flavorful with the addition of dried dill and chopped dill pickle, along with a tangy mayonnaise and sour cream dressing.

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds small red potatoes, scrubbed
  • 3 to 4 eggs, hard-cooked and diced
  • 2 ribs celery, diced
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 4 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons diced dill pickle
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon tarragon vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon freeze dried or fresh dill, or about 2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Preparation:

Cut the potatoes into small, bite-size chunks and place in a medium saucepan. Cover with water and boil for about 10 to 12 minutes, until just tender. Pour off water, set the pan in a sink or larger pan of cold water to cool the potatoes quickly.

In a large bowl, combine the potatoes with eggs, celery, red onion, green onions, and diced dill pickle. In another bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Add to the potatoes and stir gently to combine. Fold in the dill and add salt and pepper to taste.
Serves 6.

A fantastic base recipe that you can modifyApril 25, 2009By bunoozi
"It turned out wonderful; everyone raved about it. Here's what I did: I doubled the recipe, used 1 cup mayo, 1 cup sour cream, omitted the vinegar, only used 4 eggs (not 8 as it should have been if doubled), used Dijonaise instead of regular Dijon mustard, and used fresh chives instead of the larger green onions. After tasting it, it needed another good ""top coat"" from the salt shaker. I didn't have vinegar or enough eggs on hand but I made it anyway. You can modify the recipe so don't let anything stop you!"
