Prep: 30 minutes minutes
Cook: 15 minutes minutes
Total: 45 minutes minutes
Yield:12 servings
- 3 pounds small red potatoes
- 1 tablespoon salt + 1 teaspoon
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- ½ cup green onions roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers optional
- 4 hard boiled eggs yolks only
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ¼ cup dill fresh, chopped
- ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
In large pot of salted water, boil potatoes 20-30 minutes. Potatoes should be soft enough to slide off the tines of a fork, and the skins will begin to break away from the potato when cut. Drain, then cut potatoes into halves, then quarters. Place in bowl and toss with vinegar.
Add green onions and capers (optional) to food processor. Process until finely chopped.
Add hard boiled yolks, sour cream, mayonnaise, mustard, dill, pepper, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Process until creamy.
Pour egg yolk mixture over the potatoes. Stir and mash potatoes with back of spoon or potato masher. I prefer some mashed potatoes with some large chunks of potatoes mixed in. Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours or overnight, then serve.
- Gluten free: Ensure Dijon mustard does not contain wheat or wheat byproducts.
- Potatoes: Red potatoes highly recommended, otherwise use waxy potatoes such as new potatoes and fingerlings. Do not use starchy potatoes such as russet.
