This potato salad is rich and creamy, coated in a tangy buttermilk dressing with a cool crunch of celery and scallion. The surprise guest is meaty chunks of summer sausage, a classic favorite which packs an unexpected but delicious pop of flavor.

Directions
Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until just tender, about 8 minutes; drain. Transfer to a large bowl and sprinkle with the vinegar and a big pinch of salt; toss. Let cool slightly, 20 to 30 minutes.
Stir together the mayonnaise, relish, buttermilk, mustard, sugar and cayenne in a medium bowl. Add to the potatoes along with the sausage, scallions (reserve about 1 tablespoon for topping) and celery; stir until combined, taking care not to mash the potatoes. Season with salt and black pepper and top with the reserved scallions.
