Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Baby red potatoes
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 2 stalks Celery
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1.5 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp White vinegar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Thoroughly wash and scrub the baby red potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skin on.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt, bring to a boil, and cook for 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, chop the green onions, celery, and parsley into small pieces. Set them aside.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and allow them to cool slightly (around 10 minutes). The potatoes should still be warm but not steaming.
Transfer the warm potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped green onions, celery, and parsley.
Pour the honey Dijon dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss to evenly coat. Be careful not to mash the potatoes as you mix.
Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give the potato salad a gentle stir and taste for seasoning. Adjust with additional salt or pepper if necessary.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a side dish for your favorite meal.
