Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes. Dice them into about 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water. Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer the potatoes for 10-12 minutes or until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
Meanwhile, place the eggs in a separate pot and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water boils, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and separate the yolks from the whites. Chop the whites and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, mash the egg yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, white vinegar, paprika, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool, then crumble into small pieces.
Dice the celery into small chunks for added crunch.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, chopped egg whites, diced celery, bacon crumbles, and pickle relish.
Pour the egg yolk dressing over the ingredients in the bowl and gently toss everything together until evenly coated.
Sprinkle in the chopped chives and gently stir to combine. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Cover the potato salad and refrigerate it for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled, garnished with an extra sprinkle of paprika and chives if desired.
