A no mayo potato salad recipe with a spoon in it.

Lemon Herb Potato Salad

No mayo doesn’t have to mean no flavor. This No Mayo Potato Salad uses a simple warm-potato technique so the vinaigrette soaks in instead of sliding off, coating every bite. Make it ahead, serve it at room temp, and trust that it’ll taste just as good hours later.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds red potatoes cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt divided
