Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs
  • pounds (680 g) baby yellow potatoes cut into quarters
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • cup chopped dill pickle
  • ¼ cup chopped red onion
  • ¼ cup chopped celery
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons dill pickle juice
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Place the eggs in a small saucepan with ½ cup of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Steam the eggs for 11 minutes.
  • Use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool. Peel and chop.
  • While the eggs are cooking, place the potatoes in a large saucepan of cold salted water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer until the potatoes are tender but not falling apart, about 10 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes and spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet to cool.
  • While the potatoes are cooling, mix the mayonnaise, pickles, onion, celery, parsley, mustard, vinegar, and pickle juice in a large serving bowl.
  • Fold in the cooled potatoes and egg. Taste and add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and chill until you're ready to serve.

Notes

  • Soak the onion--If you find the flavor of onion to be overpowering, soak the chopped onion for 10 minutes in a bowl of cold water before draining and adding to the salad.
  • Dietary--This recipe is suitable for dairy-free, gluten-free, and vegetarian diets.
