Ingredients
- 3 pounds small red potatoes
- Kosher salt
- 1 cup good mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup buttermilk, milk, or white wine
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh dill
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup chopped red onion
Directions
Place the potatoes and 2 tablespoons of salt in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Allow the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, dill, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Set aside. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into quarters or halves, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. While the potatoes are still warm, pour enough dressing over them to moisten. (As the salad sits, you may need to add more dressing.) Add the celery and red onion, 2 teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss well, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Fantastic! I took reviewers advice and didn't add any salt and cut the mustard in half. At the end I ended up adding some salt to taste - but not much. It was GREAT. I think next time I'll add some chopped boiled eggs whites, but that's just a personal preference.

This is the best potato salad!! It is not too strong in one ingredient. They all compliment each other! This is my new potato salad recipe. Make sure the dill is fresh!! I plant dill every year in summer pots for dishes like this.

The best tasting potato salad I've eaten. My friends and family rave over it. I actually added dill relish and sliced green olives. I could eat half of it myself if I had no self control.
