Red Bliss Potato Salad with Dill

Hello, this is Sara from Life’s Little Sweets!  Red bliss potato salad is spectacular. I make it often and have done so for years and am only now sharing it.  This Red Bliss Potato Salad with Dill recipe evolved by watching my mom make potato salad and by then combining her best with my own tastes and pursuit of that perfect balance in texture and flavor. I include tips for success with this recipe below.

Tips for Success for Red Bliss Potato Salad with Dill Recipe

Have you ever had a potato salad that is just “blah”?  By just paying attention to a few details, you can make this recipe a standout as well as apply these tips to any other potato salad recipe!

  • When boiling water, put the cut potatoes in the water before turning on the heat, this way you will avoid pouring potatoes into boiling water, yikes!
  • To infuse the potatoes with flavor, add 1 tablespoon kosher salt to the water.

  • After the water comes to a boil it taked the potatoes 20 minutes more  to cook.  I like the potatoes to crumble slightly, if you prefer them to be more firm, cooke for 15 minutes. Poke a larger piece with a fork; potatoes are ready when the fork slides out easily.
  • To prevent further cooking, drain potatoes in the colander and rinse in cold water.
  • Then chill potatoes well before mixing them with the other ingredients.
  • Fresh dill is preferable to dried dill.  It adds a fresh, Summer flavor to this recipe. A finished recipe is always the sum of its ingredients; therefore, fresh versus limp herbs are always best.

  • Keep sprigs of fresh dill hydrated in water in your refrigerator.
  • To infuse the salad with wonderful flavor, make the recipe the day before it is needed and refrigerate it overnight.
  • Adjust ingredients to suit taste preference and dietary needs (i.e. more or less salt, pepper, mustard, mayonnaise, celery, or onion).
  • Do not freeze, potato salad; it refrigerates well for 3+ days, depending upon the temperature of your refrigerator.
  • To prevent harmful bacteria in the salad, do not let it sit out. Rather refrigerate or place in cooler with ice, after serving.

  • Drain potatoes completely. Then rinse in colander and chill with cold water.
  • Refrigerate until potatoes are completely chilled throughout.
  • While potatoes are boiling, you can also boil the eggs in a separate pan by bringing water to a rolling boil, spoon each egg in, turn heat off and let them sit in the water for 10-12 mins.
  • Then, spoon eggs out of the water, rinse and soak in cold water to prevent them from cooking further. Then place into a bowl and refrigerate until chilled.

    This potato salad is always a hit wherever I go. People ask me for the recipe all the time. I do cut down on the celery a bit and finely dice it.
