Notes
Storage:
- To Store: This Ranch Potato Salad should be covered and stored in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
- Don’t overcook the potatoes or you will end up with a mushy potato salad! You want the potatoes to be just cooked through, soft enough that they aren’t crunchy but they do still need to be firm.
- Be sure to rinse the potatoes in cold water so that they stop cooking and the skins don’t all fall off.
- Feel free to add extra veggies, eggs, dill, other herbs, or your favorite potato salad ingredient.
- You can make a homemade ranch dressing or buy a bottle of your favorite Ranch dressing if you prefer.
