Classic Mustard Potato Salad

I love mustard potato salad and this is, by far, my all time favorite recipe. It’s a got a secret ingredient in it that makes all the difference! This salad gets better the longer it sits in the fridge, so feel free to make it a day in advance. If you don’t want to make it that far ahead, plan well because it does need some chilling time.

Classic Mustard Potato Salad

2 cups Idaho potatoes, cooked, peeled, and diced (about 1 inch chunks)
2 eggs, hard boiled and finely diced
1/2 cup sweet onions, finely diced
1/4 cup celery, finely diced (about 2 stalks)
1/4 cup dill pickles, finely diced (or use dill pickle relish)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tbls yellow mustard
1 tbls pickle juice
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
1/2 tbls sugar

In a large bowl, combine the onion, celery, pickles, mayo, mustard, pickle juice, salt, pepper, and sugar. Stir well to combine. Add in potatoes and eggs. Stir gently until well coated.

Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours or up to overnight. Keep this in the fridge until ready to use and make sure it doesn’t sit out too long during the party!

    I went to the store to buy some mustard potato salad, but a small portion cost way too much...living on a tight budget. So I decided to make my own and I came across your recipe. I had never made it before and I have to say that it turned out pretty good and it cost a lot less and got a lot more.................Thanks for your recipe

    I was looking for recipe to match the potato salad that my grandmother had made. When I tasted your dressing, I knew I had found it!! I made it Mother's Day weekend, and 2 weeks later one of my daughters was asking me to make it again!! Thank you for helping me recreate my grandmother's potato salad, she has been gone 11 years.
