This creamy red potato salad with dill is a tangy, classic side dish that’s perfect for buffets or make-ahead meals. It features tender red potatoes coated in a smooth, flavorful dressing with fresh dill and a hint of Dijon mustard.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • Red potatoes (6 pounds, cut into bite-size pieces)
  • Mayonnaise (2 cups)
  • Sour cream (1 cup)
  • Dill weed (2 tablespoons)
  • Dijon mustard (2 tablespoons)
  • Celery seed (1 teaspoon)
  • Large stock pot

Instructions

  1. Boil potatoes. Boil red potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 12–15 minutes, then drain well.
  2. Cool potatoes. Cool potatoes for 15 minutes so the dressing doesn’t get watery.
  3. Mix dressing. Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon, dill, and celery seed until smooth.
  4. Toss and chill. Toss dressing with potatoes, cover, and chill at least 2 hours; taste and adjust seasoning before serving.

Notes

  • Chill salad at least 2 hours to develop flavors and prevent watery dressing.
