Tips
If you like your potato salad creamier, add more mayonnaise and sour cream to the dressing. If you prefer a tangier flavor, add more Dijon mustard or vinegar. For a healthier version, use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and reduce the amount of mayonnaise.
Make sure to let the potato salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. You can also add additional toppings, such as bacon or chopped herbs, for extra flavor and texture.
