A middle ground between waxy red potatoes and starchy russets, Yukon golds are great in potato salad. They hold their shape wonderfully, and lend a touch of buttery flavor to the mix. This salad blends a little yogurt into the mayonnaise dressing, adding tang. While raw bell peppers are a common potato salad ingredient, we roast them to amp up their sweetness and add some interesting charred flavor.
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat broiler with oven rack in top position. Cut peppers in half; discard seeds and stems. Place bell peppers, cut side down, on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Broil 10 minutes or until well charred. Cover pan tightly with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Uncover peppers; remove and discard skins. Chop peppers; place in a medium bowl.
Step 2
Place potatoes in a medium saucepan. Cover with water by 3 inches; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; cook 5 minutes or until al dente. Add whole eggs; cook 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain potatoes; plunge eggs into ice water. Let eggs stand 10 minutes.
Step 3
Add green onions and remaining ingredients to bell peppers; stir to combine. Peel cooked eggs; chop. Add potatoes to bell pepper mixture; toss to coat. Add eggs to potato mixture; stir gently to combine.
