Servings: 6 servings
- 2 pounds Yukon gold or creamer potatoes cut into 1 inch cubes
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or white vinegar
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon dijon
- 1 tablespoon dill pickle juice
- 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/3 cup diced red onion
- 1/3 cup finely chopped dill pickles
- 1/4 cup fresh herbs such as dill and parsley chopped
In a large pot, cover the cubed potatoes with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer the potatoes until they're fork tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain potatoes and rinse with cold water. Place them back into the pot and add in the vinegar (or pickle juice). Toss until they're coated.
While the potatoes are cooking, add the Greek yogurt, mayo, dijon, pickle juice, celery seed, salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl. Whisk together.
Add the potatoes, celery, red onion, pickles, and herbs into the mixing bowl. Gently stir together with a rubber spatula until everything is well combined. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper if needed.
Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.
- The covered potato salad will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- If you like hard boiled eggs in your potato salad, chop up 3 of them and stir them in.
