I really like onion with my potatoes, I'd definitely add some finely chopped shallots or something, maybe chop in some pickled red onion along with the pickling juice. That being said, I'm a huge fan of mustardy potato salads, maybe with some dill and green beans and radishes. Probably some capers. And definitely some shallots.

My sister did it similar to this but instead of olives, she used pickles and yellow mustard. My favorite ever. It's tough to admit it but the use of those green olives w that brineyness and the pimiento rather is just genius. And the plain white vinegar to season the potatoes . This recipe is beautiful. 🥹

You have to let the potato salad sit in the fridge for at least 24 hours before serving. It gives the flavors a chance to really meld and makes for a demonstrably better flavor.

Let me start off by staying that I really enjoy your videos. I make a version of potato salad that converts folks that usually strongly dislike (hate!) it. Cooled boiled potatoes like you described and same with the eggs (include eggs folks!). Then I mix in a small amount of mayo, mustard, finely chopped chives (or green onions), Dill pickle juice (secret ingredient!), salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Finely chopped crisp bacon is optional yet amazing.

That's a clever technique to chop the eggs. My variant is to add chopped cornichons to introduce the vinegar element into the dressing, along with some fresh dill. Also, I think it's really important to dress the potatoes while they are still warm.
