🥘 Ingredients

13 items

• 2 pounds baby potatoes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Scrub and rinse the baby potatoes thoroughly under running water. Cut any larger potatoes in half, ensuring all pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.

2. Place the potatoes in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover them. Add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart.

3. Drain the cooked potatoes and allow them to cool for about 10 minutes. Once cool, cut them into bite-sized pieces if needed.

4. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, and olive oil until smooth and creamy.

5. Fold the potatoes into the dressing mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

6. Add the chopped parsley, dill, chives, red onion, and celery to the bowl. Gently toss everything together to combine.

7. Season the potato salad with freshly ground black pepper and additional salt to taste, if needed.

8. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

9. Serve the Tangy Herb Potato Salad chilled as a side dish or on its own. Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired.
