Tis the season for sides! Last week I shared with you my favorite homemade baked bean recipe and today I’m sharing my new favorite potato salad recipe! I’ve always loved potato salad but have usually done a very traditional one with mustard, hard-boiled eggs and a few vegetables.
This salt and vinegar potato salad is definitely not your traditional favorite salad but will soon be your favorite! I really love salt and vinegar potato chips because they are so tangy and have such a great flavor, so I figured it only made sense to make a salt and vinegar potato salad! Potatoes can be kind of bland by themselves so the vinegar really wakes them up and gives this potato salad such an amazing taste that you are sure to love 🙂

Salt and Vinegar Potato Salad
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 30 mins
Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 6-8
Category: Side, Gluten Free, Vegan
Ingredients
- 3 large russet potatoes, diced (about 9 cups when diced)
- 2-3 cups distilled white vinegar*
- 1 cup vegan mayo, or regular mayo (I love using Just Mayo)
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 radishes, sliced
- 2/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
Instructions
- Place the diced potatoes in a large pot and pour vinegar in. Cover the rest of the potatoes with water, about 5 -6 cups. Bring potatoes to a boil, reduce to a simmer and simmer potatoes until fork tender, about 25 minutes. Drain potatoes and let cool for about 15 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining potato salad ingredients and make sure everything is evenly mixed together. Potato salad can be served immediately or chilled until ready to serve.
Notes
*Use 2 cups for a more mild vinegar taste and 3 cups for a more intense taste.

I’m OBSESSED with radishes right now – that’s just the perfect topping for this potato salad!
Love this idea! Salt and vinegar are such a great flavor combo, I know this would be a hit at any summer bbq.

Thanks Nadia! I’ve been craving it lately and thinking I need to make another batch 🙂
You had me at salt & vinegar! Pretty much the best savory combo there is.
I love that you incorporated those flavors in potato salad and that you used fresh dill. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!
What a totally genius idea to boil the potatoes in vinegar! I’ll bet that adds an unbelievable amount of fabulous flavor! Salt and vinegar chips are one of my favs too, so this gorgeous potato salad is right up my alley!
Ooooo I am loving this flavor for a potato salad!! Salt and vinegar chips are the best and in potato salad form??? I so need to make this this summer!!
Salt and vinegar potato chip inspired potato salad — genius! I love this, Izzy, and it looks like the best potato salad!
My husband is obsessed with salt and vinegar chips and potato salad. He would probably die if I showed him this dish, Izzy! 😉 What a creative idea!
Hi Izzy! This really caught my attention, as I’ve been a bit addicted to salt and vinegar chips lately! (really popular here in the UK!)
I bet it works great to add a bit of vinegar to potato salad to jazz it up a bit! This would be wonderfully tasty with some grilled meat. 🙂
Such a great twist on potato salad!! I love salt and vinegar chips too so I know this will be a hit with my tastebuds!
Followed your recipe exactly and came out with a tangy, flavorful salad that we couldn’t get enough of. Thank you for sharing!
That’s so great to hear! Thanks so much for letting me know 🙂
This looks great! How many radishes do you use? And could I use ACV instead of distilled white vinegar or do you think that would change the flavor too much?
Thanks!! I used about 4-5 radishes I think. Really as much or as little as you like! You could definitely use ACV instead. It will probably change the taste a little bit but I think it would still taste good 🙂
