Type of potatoes
I use Rooster potatoes, which are floury potatoes, as I like the fluffier edges that you get after boiling them. You can use waxy potatoes if you prefer a firm edge to your potatoes.
Can I make it ahead?
Yes! This potato salad needs chilling anyway, so you can make it, cover and chill the potato salad.
It should keep fine, covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
