Notes
Yukon Gold potatoes work best for a creamy texture while holding their shape.For a lighter version, substitute part of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.Feta or goat cheese can replace the blue cheese for a milder flavor.Add chopped celery, capers, red onion, or hard-boiled eggs for extra texture and flavor.Prepare several hours in advance for the best flavor development.Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.Freezing is not recommended.
