Ingredients
  

  • 2 ½ pounds potatoes, red-skinned or gold
  • 2 tbsp kosher salt for the cooking water
  • 4 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • ½ cup sweet onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup celery, chopped
  • ¾ to 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard, or to taste
  • fine salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley (optional), for garnish
  • Paprika (optional), for garnish

Instructions

  • Cook the Potatoes: Peel the potatoes if desired and cut them into 3/4-inch cubes. Put the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Add 2 tablespoons of kosher salt and 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.
