Creamy New Potato Salad

Submitted by Little Bee

"My family is not fond of traditional potato salad, or what they call "yellow potato salad", so I concocted this out of several different recipes. It is now requested at every gathering and I always have an empty bowl! Its really good with barbecue too."

Very good. Will definitely make this again. I used russet potatoes, as that is what I had on hand. Also doubled the scallions and nearly doubled the celery. I really liked the creaminess of the sour cream and the flavor of the dill. Delicious!

Makes a really great change and I also preferred it over traditional recipes. I didn't have any red potatoes so used bintje, but I think any good boiling potato would work well with or without the skin. It has a wonderful blend of flavours and a nice creamy texture.

Very tasty. A nice variation on an old favorite.

Finally a recipe without the dreaded mustard or raw onion (scallions don't count)! This was perfect and I will definitely make it again. The only change I made was to leave out the celery seed which I don't care for.
