Ingredients

  • 5 pounds red potatoes cut into 1 inch cubes (453.6 grams)
  • 4 hard boiled eggs cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 4 green onions diced about 1 inch into the green
  • 4 celery stalks diced

Dressing

  • 3 cups light mayonnaise (720 grams)
  • 3 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • dash of black pepper

Instructions

  • Add the potatoes to a large stock pot. Fill the pot with water so that the water is an inch above the potatoes. Bring the water to a boil, cook the potatoes by boiling them in water and cooking until just fork tender, about 10 minutes. After the potatoes are finished cooking, drain them, and allow to cool about 10 minutes.

  • While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together the ingredients for the dressing. Taste and adjust seasonings.

  • In a large bowl, mix together the potatoes, green onions, celery, and hard boiled eggs. Toss with the dressing.

  • This salad gets better as the dressing soaks into the potatoes. Make up to 24 hours in advance and store in the refrigerator up to two days.
