Wash the Yukon Gold potatoes, then peel if desired. Cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks.
Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes in a colander and allow them to cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
While the potatoes are cooling, prepare the dressing by mixing mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and black pepper in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, diced celery, chopped red onion, diced pickles, and chopped parsley.
Add the prepared dressing to the potato mixture and gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Fold in the chopped hard-boiled eggs, being careful not to mash them too much.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. For added flavor, sprinkle with a bit more parsley or a touch of paprika on top.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the potato salad for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy your Super Potato Salad!
