Main Ingredients

Preparation
  1. Place small potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
  2. In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, and fresh dill. Whisk together until smooth.
  3. Once the potatoes have cooled, cut them into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Add the diced potatoes to the bowl with the dressing and combine.
  5. Fold in the red onion and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Cover the bowl and chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Notes

For added flavor, consider using a splash of lemon juice in the dressing. You can also experiment with add-ins like chopped hard-boiled eggs or celery. This salad pairs wonderfully with grilled meats.
