Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized chunks, about 1-inch in size.
Place the potato chunks into a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Avoid overcooking to prevent them from becoming mushy.
Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander and immediately rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, honey, 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth to make the dressing.
Add the cooled potatoes to the bowl containing the dressing. Gently toss to coat the potatoes evenly.
Stir in the diced celery, chopped red onion, chopped dill pickles, hard-boiled eggs, fresh parsley, and fresh dill. Mix gently to combine all the ingredients.
Sprinkle paprika over the top of the potato salad for garnish.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy your Deluxe Potato Salad!
