Best Green Olive Creamy Potato Salad Recipes

GREEN OLIVE AND EGG POTATO SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large stock-pot, add potatoes and cover with cold water filling to 2 inches (5 cm) above potatoes. Add 3/4 Tbs sea salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for between 8-15 minutes. Butterball potatoes take about 8-9 minutes and Youkon Gold take about 10-12 minutes to cook. Simmer until just fork tender, but not mushy. Drain.
• Transfer the potatoes into a large mixing bowl and add 2 Tbs of apple cider vinegar. Gently stir to incorporate the vinegar. Place in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, in a small sauce-pan, add the whole eggs and cover with 2 inches (5 cm) of water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and put lid on. Set aside and set timer for 12 minutes.
• Drain eggs, place in a small bowl, cover with cold water and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Peel eggs, dice/chop leaving large chunks if desired and place in large bowl with potatoes. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sea salt, pepper and 1/4 tsp smoky paprika. Set aside.
• Into the large mixing bowl with the potatoes and eggs, add the purple onion, bell pepper, celery, parsley and olives. Pour the dressing over the veggies and gently stir to mix. Taste for mayonnaise and salt adjustment and add plenty of fresh ground pepper to taste. Store in the refrigerator for at least an hour prior to serving. Flavor development improves as the salad chills in the fridge. Before serving, I like to let it set at room temperature for 30 minutes to take the chill off. Spoon onto a serving dish/bowl, sprinkle with remaining paprika and garnish with whole olives and remaining chopped parsley.
• Store for up to four days in the refrigerator. It gets a little watery as it sets, so be sure to stir well prior to serving.

HERBY POTATO SALAD WITH SMASHED OLIVES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pot; add 2 teaspoons salt and enough water to cover generously. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes, until just tender when pierced with a fork. (Be careful not to overcook!) Drain and set aside until just cool enough to handle.
• While the potatoes cook, in a large bowl, combine the vinegar and mustard with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Add the olives, shallot and capers, and set aside to marinate for 10 to 20 minutes.
• When the potatoes are just cool enough to handle, cut them in half (or quarters, to end up with bite-size pieces), and add them to the bowl with the dressing. Gently combine and set aside to cool completely, tossing occasionally.
• Stir in the mint and parsley, along with more salt and pepper to taste, and serve the potato salad at room temperature.

POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and 2 tablespoons of salt in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Allow the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, dill, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Set aside.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in quarters or in half, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. While the potatoes are still warm, pour enough dressing over them to moisten. Add the celery and red onion, 2 teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss well, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.
