If you love red potato salad, this classic recipe is great to have in your back pocket for any occasion. Although we all can attest, potato salad is essential for summer potlucks, picnics and barbecues. As far as red potato salad recipes<\/a> go, this one is always a hit.<\/p>\n It doesn’t hurt that this recipe is quick and easy to make. You’ll boil the potatoes until just fork-tender, then cool and mix with a tangy, mayonnaise-based dressing. Hard-boiled eggs add richness and texture to the salad, while chopped celery and onions provide a refreshing crunch. Let the flavors come together over a few hours (or overnight), then serve it alongside grilled meats or sandwiches for a satisfying meal. For an extra burst of flavor, I like to sprinkle some crispy bacon bits on top before serving!<\/p>\n Place your potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring your potatoes to a boil and reduce the heat. Cover and cook them until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and let them cool. After cooling, cut your potatoes into 3\/4 inch cubes.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip: <\/em>To make your potatoes extra flavorful, boil them in vegetable or chicken stock.<\/p>\n In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, eggs, celery and onion.<\/p>\n In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, relish, sugar, mustard, parsley, salt, pepper and vinegar until thoroughly combined.<\/p>\n Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and stir gently to coat. Cover and refrigerate the potato salad with red potatoes for six hours or overnight.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em>\u00a0Don’t skip this step! Letting the potato salad meld with the dressing brings out the most flavor. Make sure to stir everything together one more time before serving.<\/p>\n Red potato salad is best stored and served cold. Due to the mayonnaise dressing, it should not sit at room temperature for more than two hours. If it does, toss it. If serving outside, the safest bet is to keep it covered in a cooler. Store leftovers in an airtight container for three to four days. You can even freeze potato salad<\/a> but know that the texture might change when thawed.<\/p>\n Yes! You can make red potato salad ahead of time. It’s preferred so the flavors meld together. Our recipe says to refrigerate it for at least six hours before serving, but you can make it a day ahead and chill it overnight in the fridge.<\/p>\n There is no reason to peel red potatoes for potato salad. Giving them a good rinse before boiling is recommended, but the red potato’s skin is thin and easy to chew. Not peeling your potatoes also helps keep the cubed shape and prevent it from getting mushy while stirring.<\/p>\n Cutting up your potatoes before you boil them will shorten the cooking time. Just make sure your cubes are an equal size so they all cook at the same rate.<\/p>\n Save yourself from washing a pot by boiling your eggs with the potatoes. The potatoes might take longer, so add the eggs during the last 10 minutes.<\/p>\n Potato salad is a famously perfect side for barbecues and cookouts. Red potato salad is an appetizing side and appropriate for everything from the best baby back ribs<\/a> to crispy fried chicken or your basic grilled burger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This creamy red potato salad recipe is a classic for cookouts, potlucks and any festive
