INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 3 pounds large russet potatoes
    • 🧂 ¼ cup kosher salt
    • 💧 10 cups cold water
    • ½ cup finely diced celery
    • 🧅 2 tablespoons finely diced sweet onion
    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
    • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives for garnish
    • 1 pinch paprika for garnish
  • Eggs & Dairy

    • 🥚 3 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and cut into chunks
    • 1 ¼ cups mayonnaise
  • Seasonings

    • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
    • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon kosher salt
    • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • Cayenne pepper to taste

STEPS

1

Place whole potatoes in a pot with 1/4 cup kosher salt. Cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 40 minutes (depending on size). Transfer cooked potatoes to a plate and allow to cool to room temperature.

2

When potatoes are completely cooled, peel off the skin. Cut into larger than bite-size pieces as the pieces will break down slightly when you toss with the dressing. Transfer potato pieces to a mixing bowl. Add celery, onions, parsley, and chopped hard-boiled eggs. Combine ingredients, breaking up larger pieces of potato.

3

Place mayonnaise in a mixing bowl. Add cider vinegar, mustard, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Whisk until well combined.

4

Pour the mayonnaise mixture onto the potatoes. Stir until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled, 2 to 3 hours. Taste for seasonings and texture before serving.

💡 Ensure potatoes are completely cooled before peeling to prevent mushiness during dressing preparation.Add extra salt or mayonnaise after refrigeration as flavors may settle over time.For a healthier option, replace part of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.
