Potato Salad (Olivier Salad)
This Olivier Salad is a classic potato salad, built from a mix of finely diced potatoes, carrots, sausage, and tangy pickles. Peas, hard-boiled eggs, and green onions are folded in, all bound together with a generous amount of mayonnaise. For the best flavor, make it ahead and let it chill in the fridge for at least an hour; this gives everything time to meld.

Boil Potatoes and Carrots
Start by cutting the potatoes and carrots into small, uniform cubes. Put them in a large pot, cover with water, then stir in 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 tablespoon white wine vinegar. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then drop the heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are cooked through and tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the vegetables well and let them cool completely before moving on. - 02
