Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt divided
  • 1 cup vegan mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup vegan sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle brine from the jar
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup chopped dill pickles
  • 1/3 cup celery sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Paprika optional for serving

Instructions

  • Into a large pot, add the potatoes and enough water to cover by 1-inch. Bring to a simmer and cook until just fork tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain in a colander and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the apple cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, then toss to coat. Set the potatoes aside for 10 minutes, until cooled slightly.
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, pickle brine, mustard, and sugar.
  • Stir in the pickles and celery. Season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt and ground black pepper.
  • Pour the dressing over the cooked potatoes and toss gently to thoroughly coat.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to overnight. Sprinkle with paprika and serve chilled.
