Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Small Yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
  • 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
  • 0.5 cup Sour cream
  • 0.75 cup Blue cheese (crumbled)
  • 1 tablespoon White wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 2 stalks Celery (finely diced)
  • 3 tablespoons Chives (finely chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under cold running water. Leave the skin on for texture.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of kosher salt to the water to season.

Step 3

Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and let them cool for 10-15 minutes. Once cooled, cut them into bite-sized pieces and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, crumbled blue cheese, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Pour the creamy blue cheese dressing over the potatoes. Use a rubber spatula or spoon to gently toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated.

Step 7

Add the finely diced celery and chopped chives to the salad. Fold these ingredients into the mixture to distribute evenly.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Before serving, taste the potato salad and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add extra blue cheese crumbles or chives for garnish, if desired.

Step 10

Serve chilled and enjoy as a flavorful side dish!
