Description

This Classic Creamy Potato Salad with Egg offers a velvety texture and a bright, tangy flavor profile that satisfies the soul. A harmonious blend of tender Yukon Gold potatoes, crisp celery, and protein-rich pasture-raised eggs makes this dish a wholesome addition to any meal.


Ingredients

Scale

3 pounds Yukon Gold Potatoes
6 Large Pasture-Raised Eggs
1 cup Avocado Oil Mayonnaise or Plain Greek Yogurt
2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
1 cup Finely Diced Celery
1/2 cup Diced Red Onio
1/4 cup Fresh Parsley or Dill
Sea Salt and Freshly Cracked Black Pepper


Instructions

  1. Wash the Yukon Gold potatoes thoroughly and place them in a large pot with cold filtered water and sea salt. Boil and then simmer for 15-20 minutes until easily pierced with a fork
  2. In a separate saucepan, hard-boil the eggs by covering them with water, bringing to a boil, then turning off heat and letting them sit covered for 10 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath
  3. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel if desired and dice into 3/4-inch cubes. Chop the hard-boiled eggs, reserving one or two yolks if desired
  4. Sprinkle apple cider vinegar over the warm potato cubes to absorb the acid
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayo (or yogurt), Dijon mustard, sea salt, and black pepper. Mash in reserved egg yolks if using
  6. Add the diced celery, red onion, and fresh herbs to the potatoes. Pour the dressing over and gently fold together without mashing the potatoes
  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours for the flavors to meld

Notes

For a lighter version, substitute half of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.

If following a plant-based lifestyle, omit the eggs and use vegan mayo.

Start cooking in cold water for even potato cooking and avoid boiled water for eggs to prevent rubberiness.
