So we can all probably agree that Potato salad is a side dish that is common in most households around the world…

But depending on where you live then how it’s prepared is going to vary.

And whether you choose to add pickles, celery or onions you can probably find it on a lot of tables during family gatherings, potlucks or BBQ’s.

Or at least where I’m from you can. 😉

And with the Easter holiday coming up it’s the perfect easy side to add to the table.

Especially since this Potato Salad contains hard boiled eggs…..

Which generally can be found in abundance during the Easter holiday.

How do you make Classic Mustard Potato Salad:

First you wanna start by peeling and dicing up the potatoes into small bite sized chunks.

Cook the potatoes till fork tender and drain…

Making sure not to overcook the potatoes or they’ll end up on the mushy side.

Combine them with celery, onions, and apple cider vinegar while still warm and stir gently.

Allow to cool about ten minutes before adding remaining ingredients.

Can I make this ahead…..

Yes… it’s actually better if the flavors have time to blend a few hours in the fridge.

How long will this potato salad keep?

Properly stored covered in the fridge… it should last from 3-5 days.

Tips to ensure the BEST Mustard Potato Salad:

1. Cut potatoes into uniform bite sized chunks to ensure even cooking…
2. Make sure to check the potatoes periodically with a fork 
3. And drain when they can be easily pierced through
4. Pour apple cider vinegar on potatoes while they are still warm
5. Finely dice the onion, celery and dill pickles
