Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs waxy potatoes diced
  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp yellow or Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp vinegar apple cider preferred or lemon juice
  • 1 small red onion diced
  • ¼ cup chopped cornichons or dill pickles
  • 2 tsp pickle juice reserved
  • 2 scallions chopped
  • Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
  • Chives and paprika for garnish

Method
 

Cook the Potatoes
  1. Place diced potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender (about 10–15 minutes). Drain and let them cool slightly.
Prepare the Dressing
  1. In a large bowl, mix mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar (or lemon juice), and pickle juice. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Add the Crunch & Flavor
  1. Mix in diced red onion, chopped pickles, and scallions. This adds texture and a fresh bite.
Combine Everything
  1. Add the warm potatoes to the dressing. Gently toss so the potatoes soak up all the flavor without breaking apart.
Season
  1. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust mustard or vinegar if you prefer more tang.
Garnish & Serve
  1. Top with chopped chives and a sprinkle of paprika for color and extra flavor. Serve warm or slightly chilled.
