Method
Preparation
- Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
- Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until a fork pierces the potatoes easily, about 15 to 20 minutes depending on size.
- Drain the potatoes and let them cool until you can handle them. Peel them if you like, then dice into bite-size pieces.
Mixing
- In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, mayonnaise, mustard, diced onion, diced celery, and chopped pickles or relish.
- Stir gently to coat the potatoes evenly, taking care not to mash them.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper. Add a touch more mustard or relish if you want extra tang.
Chilling and Serving
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least one hour so the flavors meld.
- Just before serving, sprinkle with paprika for color and a subtle smoky note if you like.

Notes
Cut potatoes into uniform pieces to cook evenly. Chill for at least an hour to let flavors marry. Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
