Best Southern Potato Salad
Creamy, tangy, and made the way Grandma always did.
Some dishes just belong at the table. In the South, potato salad isn’t just a side dish—it’s a tradition, a conversation starter, and a must-have at every barbecue, picnic, Sunday dinner, or holiday spread. And this? This is the best Southern potato salad. The kind that’s been passed down through generations, made with love, and always met with empty plates and second helpings.
Why This Southern Potato Salad Stands Out
1. The Potatoes:
We start with tender, perfectly cooked Yukon Gold or russet potatoes—firm enough to hold their shape, but soft enough to soak up all the flavor. No mush here, just good old-fashioned texture.
2. The Dressing:
Creamy, tangy, and just the right amount of zippy. A mix of real mayo, a touch of yellow mustard, and a splash of pickle juice or vinegar gives it that unmistakable Southern flavor. Not too sweet, not too tart—just balanced and bold.
3. The Mix-ins:
This is where the magic happens. Hard-boiled eggs (a Southern must), finely chopped celery for crunch, a bit of onion or green onion for bite, and dill pickles for that tangy punch. Every spoonful gives you a little bit of everything.
