NOTES
1. - PotatoesUse Golden yellow potatoes (Baby Gold Potatoes). New potatoes or baby red potatoes will also do. By cooling your baby potatoes for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting them, they become dry on the outside. So your potatoes won't become moist. And, of course, this is better for your fingers (otherwise, you'll be burning them for sure).2. - DressingBy adding the dressing to the warm new potatoes, they will absorb the flavors better.3. - HerbsAdd the fresh herbs before serving. That way, your salad will stay and look fresh. These greens will make this Dutch potato salad even better. You could also substitute them with dill, rosemary, or thyme.4. - Storage
In advance - This salad can be prepared in advance. Cook the new potatoes up to 2 days ahead and add the dressing. Cover with plastic foil and store in the refrigerator. Add the fresh herbs before serving.
Refrigerator - You can store the Dutch baby potato salad in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freezer - You can also freeze the baby potato salad. The structure will be slightly different due to the freezing, but the flavors will still be amazing. Put the potatoes in a freezer box and cover it with a lid. That way, you can freeze your salad for up to 3 months. Make sure you take the potato salad out of the freezer a day before serving. You can't heat it, so let it thaw in the refrigerator.
