Instructions
Wash the potatoes, put on a large pot of cold water to boil. Salt the water with 1 teaspoon of salt. Using a fork, pierce the potatoes after boiling for 5 minutes – when fork tender, remove from the stove top, pour out into a colander and rinse well with cold water to stop the cooking process. Allow to cool completely before making into potato salad (otherwise the sauce doesn’t turn out right).
In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix together the remaining ingredients except the chives. Mix well and then toss with the cooled potatoes. Mix gently so as not to break the potatoes apart. Taste to make sure the salt and pepper is the right balance. Add more salt and pepper to taste.
Notes
You can substitute other herbs for the dill. Try using Thyme!
