Creamy Potato Salad with fresh herb

Creamy Potato Salad

Creamy potato salad is a dreamy side dish for any summer BBQ and potluck party. Tender and flaky potato chunks with crunchy bits of fresh celery covered in creamy dressing makes this salad to be one of the best potato salad you can eat.

The addition of fresh dills are not to be missed here. Of course, crisp bacons will make the salad very, very enjoyable, too.  However, every ingredient that goes into this salad takes their pride to make it special. I would not miss out anything.

Creamy Potato Salad

Cooking Note:

Choose your potatoes wisely. 

I highly recommend to use Yukon potato. Their rich and creamy texture goes really well in this salad with the creamy dressing. You can use the red potatoes, too, but I personally don’t like to bite on potato skins so much. Therefore it is my personal choice to use Yukon potato that has been peeled.

Use fresh herbs – dills.

Summer herbs are abundant and easily found. Fresh dills brings the flavor and the fragrance to this dish. It also adds a fresh presentation and the look of this salad and I would not omit it.

Want a creamy potato salad? Use heavy cream.

The addition of cream in the dressing makes this salad so creamy and tasty. You can substitute with half and half, but the creaminess might not be the same.

Mayonnaise or sour cream?

You can use either one of your choice, but I like to use both. You can adjust the amount of each depends on what you prefer. 

Cooking Instructions:

 

Yukon potatoes

Peel and slice the potatoes anyway you like. I sliced them into disks this time. You can dice into chunks if that’s what you prefer.

Cook them in boiling water with some salt until just tender Do not overcook. Otherwise the potatoes will get mushy. Drain the potato and set aside.

Creamy Potato Salad dressing

fresh dill

Combine all the dressing ingredients. Chop celery, green onion, and dill.

Creamy Potato Salad

Put the potatoes in a large mixing bowl along with the other ingredients. Add the dressing and toss gently to coat evenly.

It is  the best to serve this salad cold. So chill the potato salad for at least 1 hour in the fridge.

Garnish with crispy bacon on top if you wish. Enjoy!
