Creamy Egg Potato Salad Recipes

CLASSIC CREAMY POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Do ahead: Place 3 eggs in a small saucepan and cover with cold water, covering by at least 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water is fully boiling, boil eggs for 7 minutes. Remove eggs to a bowl of cold water and refrigerate at least 30 minutes (or longer) until needed. To use later, peel and chop.
• Peel potatoes and cut into equal-sized chunks, just slightly larger than you want the chunks to be in your finished salad. Place in a large pot. Cover with cold water, covering potatoes by 3-4 inches. Add some salt to the water. On the stove-top, bring to a boil over high heat. Continue boiling potatoes, checking often, until potatoes are tender. *Check potatoes by piercing with a sharp knife. They are done when the knife passes through the potato with no resistance.
• Drain potatoes well and place in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp white vinegar. Allow to cool about 30 minutes, at room temperature.
• Meanwhile, chop the Additions ingredients and prepare the dressing by whisking together all the dressing ingredients until well combined.
• When potatoes have cooled, add the chopped celery, onion and hard-boiled eggs to the bowl. Pour the dressing over top. Toss to combine and coat the potatoes. Garnish the top with a bit of paprika. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly cooled before serving, about 3-4 hours, at least. Garnish with fresh parsley to serve, if desired.
• Potato salad will keep well, covered, in the fridge for up to 5 days.
