Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. If using baby potatoes, leave them whole. If using larger potatoes, cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly. Once they are cool enough to handle, cut the baby potatoes in half (if desired).
In a large mixing bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped dill, Dijon mustard, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the dressing.
Add the cooked and cooled potatoes to the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated.
Fold in the green onions to add a fresh crunch and extra flavor.
Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a side dish and garnish with additional fresh dill or parsley if desired.
