Wash the baby new potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water to enhance flavor.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender.
While the potatoes cook, finely chop the fresh dill and thinly slice the green onions. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, white wine vinegar, olive oil, black pepper, and 1 small clove of garlic (minced). Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and allow them to cool slightly for about 10 minutes. This prevents the dressing from being absorbed too quickly.
Place the warm potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Pour the prepared dressing over the potatoes and gently toss to coat.
Add the chopped dill and sliced green onions to the bowl and gently fold them in.
Serve the potato salad warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Garnish with additional dill if desired.
