Ingredients

• 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
• 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
• 3 Celery stalks
• 0.5 Red onion
• 0.5 cup Dill pickles
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 0.75 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 Hard-boiled eggs

Directions

Step 1

Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not mushy.

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the celery, red onion, dill pickles, and parsley. Set aside.

Step 5

Once the potatoes are done, drain them and spread them out on a baking sheet to cool for 10 minutes.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, black pepper, and paprika to make the dressing.

Step 7

Gently fold the cooled potatoes into the dressing along with the chopped celery, red onion, dill pickles, and parsley. Mix until well combined, being careful not to mash the potatoes.

Step 8

Peel and chop the hard-boiled eggs, then gently fold them into the potato salad.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt or pepper to suit your preference.

Step 10

Cover the potato salad and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 11

Serve cold, garnished with a sprinkle of paprika and additional parsley if desired.
