PRE- OR POSTRUN SNACK: CLASSIC CHILLED POTATO SALAD

Photographs by Kate Sears

PUBLISHED 08/02/2007


  • 2 pounds red potatoes, quartered (russets fall apart in salads; red or yellow potatoes hold their shape better)

  • 3 tablespoons cider vinegar

  • 1/2 cup chopped celery

  • 1/2 cup chopped scallion (green and white parts)

  • 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish, drained

  • 3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped (optional)

  • 1/2 cup light mayonnaise

  • 3 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


In a medium saucepan, boil potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain water, and while still warm, add vinegar, oil, celery, scallion, pickle relish, and eggs; toss gently. In separate bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Fold into potato mixture. Cover and chill before serving. Makes seven one-cup servings.
