Blue Cheese Potato Salad is a distinctive and delicious potato salad that stands apart from the rest. Real chunks of crumbled blue cheese are featured in this potato salad recipe along with sour
cream, green onions, celery, wine vinegar and fresh parsley. This potato salad has the unique flavor and tanginess you can only get from true blue cheese.
The photo above shows Blue Cheese Potato Salad made with Gold Yukon potatoes. Gold Yukons are wonderful for a large variety of potato salads because they have just the right moisture content. You can certainly use any other type of potato (such as Russets or red potatoes), but I personally recommend choosing Gold Yukon potatoes for this recipe. Another great thing about Gold Yukons is that after they have been boiling for a short while, their skins begin to naturally fall off when they are nearly finished cooking. This leaves you with one less task to do (peeling). This fabulous potato salad recipe is great for all kinds of occasions. So, if you're a blue cheese fan, introduce your family, friends or guests to a new potato salad experience!
