Potato Salad Recipe
This Potato Salad is loaded with fresh and crisp cucumber and radishes that make it lighter and supremely satisfying. The creamy dressing has a star ingredient that might surprise you; plain mustard. The flavor is subtle but adding it is GOLD in potato salad. We love this for the holidays, particularly as a Christmas and Easter salad! Also, my son loved it, giving it two thumbs up (which is a big deal!).
Ingredients for Creamy Potato Salad:
Russet potatoes are our favorite for this salad because they are easy to peel and can be cooked 1-2 days in advanced, covered and refrigerated until ready to use. The radishes, cucumber and celery and a crisp freshness to this salad that makes it so special for the holidays. Hard boiled eggs add great protein and texture.
The Best Potato Salad Dressing:
Adding sour cream to the mayo makes it lighter and so creamy. Don’t be afraid of adding mustard. It is not potent in this recipe at all, but makes the salad next-level delicious. You might recognize this potato salad dressing as the same sandwich spread that we developed for our favorite Bakery sandwich.
Make-Ahead Tip: Once this salad is mixed with dressing and salt, it is best enjoyed right away or refrigerated up to 6 hours. You can prep your other ingredients ahead of time and stir in the dressing just before serving.
Garnish with chives and freshly cracked black pepper to pretty it up.
Creamy, dreamy and delicious! Everything about this potato salad is good! It’s definitely worth discovering and I hope you love it as much as we do!! Is there a special side dish that always shows up at your holiday table? I’d love to hear about your holiday traditions in a comment below!
