Ingredients
- 2 pounds small purple potatoes
- 1 purple onion, diced
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon celery seed
- 1 teaspoon cayenne
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 lemon, juiced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the potatoes until fork tender but not mushy, about 20 minutes. Drain, then rinse in cold water, and cut in quarters. Place the warm potatoes in a large bowl and toss with onion, celery, dill, and parsley. In another bowl, stir together mayonnaise, mustard, celery seed, cayenne, vinegar, and lemon. Check seasoning. Add the dressing to the vegetable mixture. Toss gently to coat taking care not to mash the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.

First, I don't even like potato salad, but I do love purple potatoes. I was searching for a more gourmet/interesting version of potato salad to make for a date night picnic to a local amphitheater for a concert. I searched purple potato salad and came upon this recipe. Glad I did!
This is absolutely HEAVENLY! I can't say enough positive things about it. I made it as specified with a few exceptions:
- I used a red onion (I've never seen a "purple" onion around my area
- I used vegenaise (I'm vegan and also allergic to eggs and generally dislike mayo
- I used Braggs raw apple cider vinegar because I have a ton of it
- I used 1/2 teaspoon of the cayenne because my husband doesn't like spice/hot. 1/2 teaspoon had no kick, so if you don't mind a little kick, use the full teaspoon: it's not overkill.
This recipe will be something I make all throughout spring and summer and bring to any activity involving food.
FANTASTIC!

Just wonderful. I didn't have a purple onion or fresh dill, so substituted a vidalia and dried dill. It is so yummy, tangy, and slightly spicy. Don't back off the cayenne unless you're serving little ones. (My little ones like spicy. Oh, and the color is lovely with the purple potatoes.

Love the addition of dill! Used picked veggies instead since I had some to use up. Have yet to meet a Ty's recipe we do not like. :
