Zesty Mustard Potato Salad
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds of small red potatoes, quartered
- 1/2 cup of Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup of whole grain mustard
- 1/2 cup of mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup of sour cream
- 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
- 2 eggs, hard boiled and finely chopped
- 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh dill
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Preparing the Potatoes
First, place your quartered potatoes into a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring the pot to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool.
Make the Mustard Dressing
While the potatoes are cooling, it’s time to whip up that zesty mustard dressing. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, mayonnaise, sour cream, and apple cider vinegar. Stir until smooth and well blended. The combination of these ingredients creates a creamy, tangy base that’s packed with flavor.
Assembling the Salad
Once the potatoes have cooled to room temperature, it’s time to bring everything together. Gently fold the potatoes into the mustard dressing, making sure each piece is well coated. Add the finely chopped red onion, chopped hard boiled eggs, fresh dill, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Give everything a gentle toss to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Let the Flavors Meld
For the best results, cover the potato salad and refrigerate it for at least an hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully, creating the perfect blend of tangy, creamy, and herby goodness. You won’t regret taking the time for this step – the wait is worth it!

This mustard potato salad pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, especially sausages and burgers. It’s also a fantastic side for a vegetarian spread, adding a burst of flavor to any meal.
