Tips for the Perfect Creamy Red Potato Salad
- Don’t Overcook the Potatoes: It’s important to cook the potatoes just until they’re tender but not mushy. If they’re too soft, they can break apart when you mix them with the dressing.
- Customize the Flavor: Feel free to experiment with add-ins like bacon bits, chopped pickles, or green onions for extra flavor and crunch.
- Make It Ahead: Potato salad tastes even better the next day! Prepare it ahead of time for parties, barbecues, or potlucks, and let the flavors develop in the fridge.
- Lighten It Up: Swap the mayonnaise for Greek yogurt or use half mayo and half Greek yogurt for a lighter version with the same creamy texture.
