The Secret to Tasty Potato Salad? Sour Cream

The recipe couldn’t be easier. It’s just boiled new potatoes tossed with a dressing of sour cream, vinegar, green onions, fresh dill, salt and pepper. What’s surprising is how much mileage you get out of so few ingredients. The credit lies with the sour cream, which provides a perfectly tangy base for the potatoes. Many thanks to my friend Kathi for sharing this recipe with us. It’s one of her standbys and if you make it, it will likely become one of yours too.
