I liked this recipe because the worcestershire sauce gave it a little zip that ordinary potato salad doesn't have. I added a little less basil, as it's not a favorite herb of my family's. Also I didn't add onions for dietary reasons, but used onion powder instead. Overall it was a nice change of pace.

Excellent! While I love my old fashion Irish version, this potato salad made a spectacular side dish for a summer dinner party. The usual mayo lightened with sour cream and then transformed with fresh herbs, vinegar, mustard, garlic and Worchestershire was delightful. I made the recipe as directed except for decreasing the amount of basil to 1 tbls. I added sliced baby cucumbers as a garnish and sprinkled paprika and parsely on top to accent the red skin potatoes, white dressing and green herbs and celery. I served the salad with Derf's Marinated Flank Steak and Tomatoes Provencale. Chia, my guests, DH and I thank you for this lovely dish.

oh this was good! We eat a lot of salads and this is going in the Tried and True directly. Changed nothing. Perfect as is.

Loved this potato salad and didn't change a thing.... A little paprika sprinkled before serving.. Everyone commented on this dish. The celery complemented the texture along with the potatoes Maybe next time I might add some black olives or dill pickle.
