Steps:

• 1. Peel potatoes and cut into 1 inch cubes; place in a 5 quart pot, cover with water (I add some salt to water); boil for approximately 7 to 8 minutes (time may vary so check for firmness around 5 to 6 minutes, don't over cook and don't under cook, you don't want mashed potato salad and you don't want under cooked potatoes; drain and rinse in cold water; drain well.
• 2. While potatoes are draining and cooling off; combine chopped onion and eggs; set aside.
• 3. In a separate bowl, combine pickles, celery, salt and pepper, mustard and mayonnaise.
• 4. Once potatoes are cooled; add chopped onion and eggs; fold together gently; add mayonnaise mixture and combine gently with other ingredients; if salad seems like you don't need all the mayonnaise mixture; don't use it all, if salad seems to dry, add additional mayonnaise.
• 5. Garnish top with sliced boiled eggs and sprinkle with paprika if desired.
• 6. NOTE: This was an excellent choice for a side to go with https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-jalapeno-bourbon-ribs-dee-dees/pork and https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-cheese-biscuits-dee-dees/biscuits.

Place in a large bowl; add eggs, celery and onions. , In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over potato mixture and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes:.
• In a large saucepan, combine potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook potatoes until easily pierced with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain potatoes and place them in a large bowl.
• Assemble the salad:.
• In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, tarragon, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Pour olive-oil mixture over warm potatoes. Stir in celery, sweet and green onions, and pickle relish. Fold in eggs and mayonnaise. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Steps:

• To make the potatoes: Tie the thyme, parsley, rosemary, and bay leaf together with a piece of kitchen twine. Put the bundle in a medium saucepan along with the wine and garlic. Slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and add to the saucepan. Add cold water to cover by 1 inch and the salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer, and cook until the potatoes are tender but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Drain the potatoes, and discard the herb bundle.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a large bowl combine the vinegar, mustard, salt, and season with pepper, to taste. Gradually whisk in the oil to make a smooth dressing.
• Add the warm potatoes to the dressing and toss very gently to combine, taking care not to break up the potatoes. Add the celery and set aside to cool.
• When ready to serve, carefully fold in the parsley and scallions. Serve.
