Method
Boil and cool the potatoes
- Bring a pot of water to a boil in a Dutch oven, then add red potatoes and cook until tender, about 15–20 minutes, until a knife slides in easily. Drain the potatoes and spread them on a sheet pan to cool completely for better texture.
Make the creamy dressing
- In a bowl, whisk mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth. Continue whisking until the dressing looks glossy and evenly combined.
Assemble the salad
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled red potatoes, celery, green onions, and fresh parsley. Toss gently so the vegetables distribute throughout the potatoes.
- Pour the creamy dressing over the potato mixture and toss well to coat every cube. Keep tossing until no dry potato pieces remain.
Chill and serve
- Refrigerate the potato salad for 2 hours before serving, until cold and set. Serve chilled and garnish with extra parsley if desired.
Notes
For the best texture, cool the boiled potatoes completely before adding dressing so the mayo doesn’t thin out. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; freeze is not recommended because the dressing can separate. For a lighter option, substitute half the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt while mixing the dressing.
