Recipe
There are as many potato salad recipes as there are chefs. Recently, Cook It shared with you the superb Julia Child’s potato salad, full of bacon goodness, hard-boiled eggs, and the classic combo of celery and pickles. However, if you are looking for a more traditional recipe, Ina Garten’s potato salad is the one to try.
You may recognize Ina Garten as the host of Food Network’s Barefoot Contessa. Her recipes are always simple and easy to follow, so it is no surprise that she doesn’t need that many ingredients to fix a 5-star potato salad. Buttermilk adds a tang, chopped celery and red onion — crunch, fresh dill — a bright and herby taste. Is it really that good? Let’s find out!
