Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 5 large red potatoes
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons red apple vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- A pinch of salt
- ½ cup white onion (minced)
- 1 red bell pepper (julienned)

- 1 stalk celery (diced)
- ¼ cup fresh chives (minced)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (minced)

Instructions
- Begin by boiling the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and let cool.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, red apple vinegar, sugar, and salt to make the dressing.
- While the potatoes cool, chop the veggies: mince the onion, julienne the bell pepper and carrots, and dice the celery.
- Once cooled, cut the potatoes into cubes or leave them whole as preferred. Combine potatoes with dressing and chopped vegetables in a large mixing bowl.
- Season with salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard to taste. Mix gently to combine all ingredients without breaking down the potatoes.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
