Fourth Of July Potato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Put 1 pound each chopped blue potatoes and white potatoes and 1/2 pound chopped red potatoes in a large pot. Cover with cold water; add 2 tablespoons white wine vinegargarlic and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and cool slightly (discard the garlic). Toss with 1 1/2 cups halved cherry tomatoes, 1/3 cup torn basil and 2 tablespoons each chopped scallions and parsley. Dress with 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 more tablespoons vinegar, and salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. (You may need two pots.) Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until fork-tender, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Start checking for doneness after 1 hour. Drain and rinse the potatoes with cold running water.
• Place black olives, green olives, pickle chips, onion, and hard-cooked eggs into a large heavy-duty disposable foil pan. When the potatoes are cool, chop them into small pieces and gently mix them with the olive-egg mixture.
• Combine mayonnaise and yellow mustard together. Add the dressing to the salad ingredients and mix well. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Set the potatoes in a large pot; add 1 tablespoon salt and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Set over high heat and cook just until fork-tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. (You still want the potatoes to still have some shape to avoid turning the dish into mashed potatoes.) Drain potatoes, and set them aside to cool.
• As potatoes cool, make the dressing: To a large bowl, add mayonnaise, relish, mustard and granulated onion; whisk to combine.
• Add the potatoes to the dressing, along with the diced hard-boiled eggs, and celery, if using; stir gently to combine. Taste and season with salt and black pepper as needed.
• Chill for at least 2 hours, and up to overnight. Serve cold. Finish with a sprinkle of paprika. Potato salad will keep for 4 days in an airtight container.
