How to Make Potato Salad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This Potato Salad recipe will work in any brand of electric pressure cooker, including the Instant Pot<\/a>, Ninja Foodi<\/a>, or Power Pressure Cooker XL<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favorite part about this pressure cooker potato salad is that you can cook the potatoes and hard boil the eggs at the same time!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Place the peeled and diced potatoes in a steamer basket in the pressure cooking pot, then gently nestle the eggs on top. (No need to crack them, just take them from the carton to on top of the potatoes.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cook for 4 minutes on high pressure, use a quick release, then remove the lid for perfectly hard-boiled eggs and tender potatoes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the potatoes are cooking, make the potato salad dressing. I like to mix up the dressing ingredients right in the bowl I\u2019ll serve or store my potato salad in. Add the cooled potatoes and eggs, mix everything together, and there\u2019s no need to dirty another dish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take the eggs to an ice water bath to cool and allow the potatoes to cool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Make Homemade Potato Salad Dressing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now, I know people have strong <\/em>feelings about potato salad dressing. (Duke’s Mayonnaise or Hellmann’s, anyone?) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The great thing about my method is that you can adapt it to work with your favorite mayo and seasonings.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My dressing is a traditional potato salad recipe, based on how my mom made hers. Fresh parsley adds freshness and a bit of green to the dish, while pickle juice is the secret to zippy, tangy potato salad dressing. I usually go with French\u2019s yellow mustard for the most classic flavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dressing Flavor Variations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I like to use reduced-fat mayonnaise, which makes the dressing a bit healthier. (Of course, you can use whatever mayonnaise you have on hand and your favorite flavor of mustard.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
