Hard-Boiling the Eggs
Hard-boil the eggs by placing them in a pot of cold water. Bring the water to a gentle boil and let the eggs cook for about 9-10 minutes. Once done, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool quickly. Peel and chop the eggs.
Creating the Flavorful Dressing
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, diced dill pickles, finely chopped red onion, and finely chopped celery. Mix these ingredients well to create a tangy and creamy dressing that will bind the salad together.
Bringing It All Together
In a large bowl, gently combine the cooked and slightly cooled potatoes with the chopped hard-boiled eggs. Pour the flavorful dressing over the mixture and toss everything together until the potatoes and eggs are well coated. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, ensuring a balanced flavor profile.
Expert Tips for a Stellar Southern Potato Salad
Select the Right Potatoes: Choose russet potatoes for their starchy texture, which helps absorb the dressing and flavors.
Perfectly Cooked Potatoes: Be cautious not to overcook the potatoes. They should be fork-tender but not mushy.
Chill Before Serving: For the best taste, refrigerate the salad for a few hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Customize to Taste: Feel free to add your personal touch by incorporating ingredients like chopped bacon, green onions, or even a dash of hot sauce.
Garnish Creatively: A sprinkle of paprika and fresh parsley not only adds color but also a burst of visual appeal and flavor.
