Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound red potatoes, scrubbed and quartered
  • 1 pound white potatoes (Yukon Gold), peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 pound blue or purple potatoes, scrubbed and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • ¼ cup fresh dill, finely chopped
  • ½ small red onion, finely diced
  • 1 stalk celery, diced
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the red, white, and blue potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by about an inch. Add a pinch of salt.
  2. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 12-15 minutes, or until a fork slides in easily but the potatoes still hold their shape.
  3. Drain potatoes in a colander and rinse briefly under cold water to stop cooking. Let them sit for a few minutes to cool but remain slightly warm.
  4. While potatoes cool, finely dice the red onion and celery. Chop the fresh dill finely.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  6. Gently fold the potatoes, onion, celery, and dill into the dressing, being careful not to mash the potatoes.
  7. Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let flavors meld.

Notes

Start boiling potatoes in cold water to prevent mushiness. Use fresh dill for best flavor. Fold salad gently to keep potatoes intact. Chill at least 30 minutes before serving. Adjust mayo or yogurt if salad seems dry after chilling. For vegan version, substitute vegan mayo and plant-based yogurt. Celery can be swapped with cucumber for extra crunch in summer.
