Potato Salad

  • 6

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs small potatoes
  • kosher salt
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp whole grain mustard
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh dill
  • fresh ground pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion

Preparation

Step 1

Place the potatoes and 2 tbsp of salt in a large pot of water. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Allow the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes.

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayo, buttermilk, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, dill, 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. Set aside.

When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in quarters or in half, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. While the potatoes are still warm, pour enough dressing over them to moisten. Add the celery and red onion, 2 tsp of salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Toss well, cover and refrigerate for a few hours to allow flavors to blend.
