Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lb new potatoes
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, chopped
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 cup red onion, finely diced
- 0.5 cup celery, finely chopped
Instructions
Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger potatoes in half for even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skins on for extra texture and flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, black pepper, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
Add the cooled potatoes to the dressing and gently toss to coat them evenly.
Stir in the red onion, celery, parsley, dill, and chives until well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if needed.
Cover the potato salad and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired before serving. Enjoy your creamy new potato salad!
