Ingredients

• 2 pounds red potatoes
• 0.5 cups mayonnaise
• 0.5 cups sour cream
• 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 2 stalks celery, finely diced
• 0.5 cups red onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 units hard-boiled eggs, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Wash the red potatoes and cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skin on for added texture.

Step 2

Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Cook the potatoes for 12–15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Be careful not to overcook, as you want the potatoes to hold their shape in the salad.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Let them cool to room temperature.

Step 5

In a separate smaller bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk until smooth and well incorporated.

Step 6

Add the celery, red onion, and parsley to the cooled potatoes, then pour the dressing over the mixture.

Step 7

Gently toss the potatoes to coat them evenly in the dressing. Be careful not to mash the potatoes as you mix.

Step 8

Season the salad with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.

Step 9

Fold in the chopped hard-boiled eggs, mixing gently to combine.

Step 10

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

Step 11

Before serving, give the salad a final stir and garnish with additional parsley, if desired.
