The tarragon was a stroke of genius, Alton! I have tons of it in the garden and don't use it as often as I'd like. We prefer uncooked "crispy" pickles and add hard boiled eggs, but those are our only changes. Made it to take to the 500. Man am I popular today! Thanks, Alton.

I trust Alton, I think he's an artist, and now a magician. I hate potato salad, but my husband loves it. I tried this recipe because it sounded different, and it was. I LOVE it. I used dried tarragon and put like 3Tbs in it. Divine. The flavors are such good combinations! I also used dill pickle because I couldn't find the other. Will use again and again.

YUMMY, like most of Alton's recipes! I made this spur of the moment, like other reviewers, and still great! I cooked the red potatoes, put in an ice bath, when cool, i diced them (i don't have luck slicing, usually the potatoes turn into mush with skin on and added the cider vinegar, then threw them into the freezer while I got the dressing ready. I used Hellman's mayo, 2 stalks of celery, onion powder (instead of the real deal, raw onion doesn't sit well with my hubby and sliced dill pickles (didn't have cornishons and other than that followed Alton's recipe.
Gently mixed up all ingredients and tossed in refrigerator for an hour. YUMMY!!!

I made this recipe on spur of the moment, and even the naysayer who told me(before we sat down to eat dinner red onions dont belong in potato salad had two servings! I was unable to find tarragon of any kind at two local stores, so I omitted it. Also subbed sweet relish for the cornishons, and the switch was seamless. Already had white boiling potatoes on hand so used them instead of the reds, and they came out firm and tasty. Since I couldnt chill overnight as directed, threw them in the fridge with a few handfuls of crushed ice and water in sealed container, while I finished shopping for the rest of the salad ingredients. Worked like a charm!
Considering all the raves I got after serving this, and being told "this one's a keeper- make it your go to recipe" how can I do anything BUT make it my new standard potato salad? I recommend everyone try it. You, your family, and friends will love it!

I LOVE this recipe. I substitute fresh dill for the tarragon, though because I've always thought tarragon tastes like pinesol.
