Print Recipe

This Dill Pickle Potato Salad with Fresh Herbs is a delightful twist on a classic dish, bringing a burst of flavor with every bite. Perfect for summer gatherings and backyard barbecues, it’s sure to impress your guests!

Ingredients

  • Yukon Gold or red potatoes
  • Whole dill pickles or diced dill pickles
  • Fresh dill
  • Fresh parsley
  • Mayonnaise
  • Dijon mustard or yellow mustard
  • Red onion or green onions or shallots
  • Hard-boiled eggs
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Celery salt or garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by washing the potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skins on for added texture. Boil them in salted water for about 10-12 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and let cool.
  2. While the potatoes are cooling, finely chop your dill pickles, onion, and fresh herbs. If you're using hard-boiled eggs, chop those as well.
  3. In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
  4. Once the potatoes are cool, add them to the bowl with the dressing. Gently fold in the chopped dill pickles, herbs, and onions, ensuring everything is well-coated.
  5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour to let the flavors meld together. This is a crucial step!
  6. Once chilled, give the salad a gentle stir and taste for seasoning. Adjust if necessary, then serve it up in a lovely bowl or platter.
