Variation

For a slightly sweet potato salad, add 1/3 to 1/2 cup sweet pickle relish in step 2.

Did You Know

Round red and white potatoes are waxy and work best for potato salad because the pieces stay firm when fully cooked. Baking potatoes, which are starchy, tend to break apart and become mushy in salads.
