Description

This vibrant twist on classic potato salad combines tender new potatoes with the intense, savory flavor of sun-dried tomatoes. The dressing, a blend of sour cream, yogurt, and zesty horseradish, cuts through the richness while fresh dill and celery add crunch and herbal notes. Unlike traditional mayo-heavy salads, this version is lighter yet still satisfyingly creamy. Its perfect for summer picnics, as a side for grilled meats, or a hearty addition to a lunch box. The flavors meld beautifully when chilled, making it an excellent make-ahead dish for gatherings.

  1. Place potatoes in a large kettle with enough water to cover.

  6. Sprinkle olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt over potatoes, tossing lightly to coat.
  7. Cut dried tomatoes into thin slivers and add to potatoes.
  8. Stir in celery, celery leaves, green onions, and dill.
  9. Spoon into large bowl; cover and refrigerate if preparing ahead.
  10. Combine sour cream, yogurt, horseradish, pepper and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.

Note

For best flavor, allow the salad to chill for at least 2 hours before serving to let the flavors meld.

If using oil-packed dried tomatoes, drain well but reserve a teaspoon of the oil to mix into the dressing for extra flavor.

This salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Feel free to adjust the horseradish quantity based on your preferred heat level.
