Notes

Recipe Notes:
  • For best results, let the potato salad sit in the refrigerator overnight before serving. This allows the flavors to blend together and gives the salad a delicious taste.
  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor.
  • Customize the recipe to your liking by adding other ingredients like bacon or pickles.
 
Special Tips:
  • Use red potatoes for a firmer texture and better flavor.
  • Let the potato salad sit in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight before serving to allow the flavors to blend together.
  • Add the dressing to the potatoes while they are still warm to help the potatoes absorb the flavors better.
