Make the potato salad a day ahead. Let it come to room temperature, then keep covered in the fridge. Refresh it with a little olive oil to serve, if needed.

Absolutely love this! It’s so fresh and zingy. I had it with some spicy grilled chicken and it was perfect. I’ll definitely be doing my potato salad this way all summer.
