Description

A fresh potato salad featuring seasonal spring vegetables.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
  • 1 cup asparagus spears, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion
  • 4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped

Instructions

  1. Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold salted water, and bring to a boil. Cook until potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
  2. While potatoes cook, blanch the asparagus in boiling water for 2 minutes. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Drain.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add the warm potatoes, asparagus, thawed peas, red onion, and chopped eggs to the dressing. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.
  5. Fold in the fresh chives.
  6. Chill the salad for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • For a tangier flavor, add 1 teaspoon of pickle relish to the dressing mixture.
  • You can substitute dill pickles for red onion if you prefer.
