Description
A refreshing and tangy potato salad that combines the sharpness of vinegar with the creaminess of olive oil and fresh herbs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs red potatoes, cubed into 1-inch pieces
- 1/4 cup white vinegar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 tsp salt (plus more for pasta water)
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp chopped chives
Instructions
- In a large pot, boil cubed potatoes in generously salted water until fork-tender but still holding their shape, about 10-12 minutes.
- While potatoes cook, whisk together white vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined and slightly emulsified.
- Drain potatoes immediately and pour the vinegar dressing over them while they’re still steaming hot.
- Gently toss the warm potatoes with dressing until every piece glistens, being careful not to break them apart.
- Add chopped dill, red onion, and chives while potatoes are still warm, mixing gently to distribute herbs evenly throughout.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let flavors meld, preferably overnight.
Notes
- Using fresh ingredients is key to bringing out the best flavors.
- Allowing the salad to sit overnight enhances the taste.
- Add more salt to the boiling water for better seasoning of the potatoes.
