User Comments:

• "This potato salad was delicious. It was creamy and tangy, but not too heavy." - Sarah J.

Special Precautions and Tips:

• Be sure to scrub the potatoes well before boiling.
• Don't overcook the potatoes, or they will become mushy.
• Let the potatoes cool slightly before adding the mayonnaise, as hot potatoes can break the emulsion.
• If you want to add some extra flavor, you can stir in some chopped bacon, hard-boiled eggs, or crumbled blue cheese.
