How to Make Potato Salad 2 Totally Different Ways - Good Housekeeping
Our secret: Dill pickles (and lots of 'em)
Potatoes — in this case, potato salad — are the ultimate summer comfort food. Nothing brings out the juicy flavor of a burger or grilled chicken quite like this classic side. And because we know that you're either a mayo fan or a vinegar devotee, our Test Kitchen has whipped up instructions for both creamy and tangy versions.
Our recipes are simple and easy, but there are a few tricks for getting the finished product just right. Cutting potatoes into even-size pieces is the best way to prevent mushy and undercooked spuds. When the cooking time is up, test for doneness by sticking a small toothpick or knife into the potato. The knife should pierce through easily, and the whole potato should still hold its shape.
