What is the best kind of potato to use for potato salad?
Online Answer
The potatoes you use will make all the difference in the texture of your salad. Some cooks prefer waxy potatoes such as Yellow Finn, Yukon Gold, and red potatoes because they hold their shape when they're cooked and keep their firm texture in the salad when they're chopped up and tossed with dressing.
