The creamy mayo and mustard dressing and customizable ingredients make this potato and egg salad a crowd-pleaser.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 pounds potatoes (red-skinned or Yukon gold preferred)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt for the cooking water
- 4 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped
- 3/4 to 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard, or to taste
- 1/2 cup finely chopped sweet onion
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
Cook the Potatoes: Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Put the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes or until fork tender but still firm. Drain and let them cool with the lid ajar. 
Assemble the Salad: Combine the cooled potatoes with the chopped eggs, onion, and celery. Add 3/4 cup of mayonnaise, mustard, and pepper and gently toss to combine, adding more mayonnaise if needed. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper as needed. 
Serve: Garnish the salad with parsley and/or paprika if desired. Enjoy!
