Ingredients
  

  • 3 lbs Yukon gold or russet potatoes
  • 2 tsp salt for boiling potatoes
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 cup mayonnaise I prefer Dukes
  • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  • 1/4 cup sweet pickle relish
  • 2 stalks celery diced
  • 1/2 sweet onion diced
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt adjust to taste
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper adjust to taste

Instructions
 

  • Start by washing the potatoes thoroughly. Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes and place them in a large pot. Cover with water and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the hard-boiled eggs. Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes. Once done, drain the hot water and place the eggs into a bowl of ice water. Peel and chop the eggs.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar and yellow mustard. Add in the sweet pickle relish, chopped celery, and diced onion.
  • Gently fold in the cooled potatoes and chopped hard-boiled eggs and coat evenly in the mayonnaise mixture. Season with salt, pepper and paprika. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired!
