Delicious! My grandma was preparing (in Romania) potato salad during lent or Christmas fast. She called it “Greek salad” and she was adding red onions in the winter or scallions in the spring, olives, lettuce, in winter she was adding delicious cucumbers pickled in salt and red bell peppers pickled in vinegar. We did not have olive oil in my childhood (first time I tasted olive oil when I was 20) so she was using sunflower oil and vinegar for dressing. I never tried with lemon, I will try for sure. She was also preparing many Greek dishes - moussaka or delicious “supa a la Grec” with rice, egg &lemon
Exquisite, delicious. It's been a very long time since I had such a good potato salad. My late wife was Greek and used to prepare it. When she passed away I tried to match her culinary skills. Unfortunately I never could. So thank you for this wonderful recipe.
By the way I live in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
Making this tomorrow, for our Monday’s Memorial Day cookout. Love your extremely-easy to read blog, and your recipe Index, is a super great feature😃. Most others I checked, I ended up giving up finding the recipe, in their ultra loaded, difficult-to-find-things blogs. Thank you for organizing it so well.
When our family was in Greece about 12 yrs ago, we ordered the Greek salad. When it came, it was huge.
A wonderful surprise when we got into it to discover a mound of potato salad.. Greek crusty bread and butter , what a meal. Back in Florida visiting Tarpon Springs they served their Greek salad the same way with potato salad in lower level. I always make my Greek salad that way now. My family expects it!.
Absolutely glad I found your channel!
I have some potatoes in the pantry that I need to use up, and this recipe is perfect! I like things creamy so I will make the one with yogurt, especially because I love yogurt and dill together. This is a great alternative to mayo-based potato salad!
Enjoy it and if you're on fb or instagram, share a pic with me by tagging me :)
Shrimp might taste good in this potato salad 🤤
This looks incredible and super delicious !!! I like both versions, vegan and creamy dressing !!! I can't wait to make this fantastic Greek Potato salad !!! Thank you so much for these wonderful recipes you share with all of us !!! 💕
What a fab potato salad!! I won't give up my
Southern one but this is very tasty too. Thx, Dimitria
Nice potato salad. I would try both the versions.
Oh, yes! We have this all the time during Great Lent only they call it Syrian potato salad in our church!
Thank you for sharing this delicious salad recipe with us 😋
Looks delicious! I'd love either version. Full of ingredients I adore and I have all the ingredients in my kitchen right now! I'm going to make this tomorrow for Sunday lunch. Thanks! 😊
A new way to make potato salad! Going to try this tomorrow.
And nothing to do with food, but I absolutely adore the blouse you're wearing.
So wonderful looking, thanks, I Will make this!
This looks so delicious and simple! I can't wait to try it! Thank you for sharing. 😊
Lovely presentation. I will certainly try these recipes.
Efxaristo Dimitra. I made the First Way recipe and doubled it. Fabulous and tasty and light. I followed the recipe and used fresh dill and fresh Italian parsley. My husband grilled steaks to go with the Potato salad. My whole family loved it including my parents so this recipe is Yiayia and Papou' approved. Looking forward to more summer recipes. Have a wonderful day!
looks delicious! i will love this! both of them!
Never made it like that thank but looks really good, Yumm
Fabulous! You rock!!!! Thank You!
You are amazing! I can't wait to try your dishes.....Keep up the good work!
Love this potato salad. I grew up on this version using wine vinegar and Greek olive oil. I love yours.❤️ So pretty. I prefer your olive oil potato salad to mayo or yogurt.
The vinegar is nice too :)
great recipe, thank you
I prefer both!
YUM! Thank you!
Blessings🧚🏻♀️
I made my own version of this today with what I had on hand - steamed sweet potatoes, potatoes, beets, asparagus tips, spring onions, tomatoes, pine nuts, thyme, avocado oil and lemon juice. Oh my good-ness! Thank you again for the inspiration!
Demitri,I liked the colorful salad that you made with that magical lamb leg...Delish!
Sounds delicious and easy so I’ll definitely give it a try
Enjoy :)
Beautiful Dimitra with her beautiful recipe ❤
Supper delicious 😋
Oh, so very delicious!!! 😋😋😋
Thank you 😋
OK u got me, I want both, because it's different, and new.
It’s is so so D D D D D D D delicious 😊
Than you ❤
You are the best!
the tips is appreciated : ) don† know how 2 cook potato till now~
Very similar to palestinian food. I will make it for dinner tonight. Looks yummy.
Both look so good! I might try adding some chopped garlic to mine :P
Both of them look delicious. The green herbs are perfect for St. Patrick's Day. I'd add eggs and green onion to them, plus pimiento at Christmas.
Yum my mouth is watering
.. I would eat either ,both are delicious!
Yummy 😋
Don't forget your pine nuts! They're the best part!
For real! lol
This looks really good, I will try it. Born in the south we put mayonnaise in everything. But I love your videos and will try this. I cook for my local fire department twice a week so I am going to surprise my guys with this after I eat some.
Enjoy :)
Hi dimithra ' now now now..... let me tell u ' I have tried ur potato salad and hmmm..... its amazing and I used it for my lunch , all that I can say u is dimithra it was superb and I like to tell u some thing dimithra....... ur classy and u certainly have passion for preparing good food ' am going to meet up with u in Greece ' some day am coming and I have a lot to learn nd share with u dear ' I was a student of the hospitality industry and worked with to top brands for three years in the kitchen , b4 I quit to start my own business , but my passion for food will never ever fade '
πατατοσαλάτα - ha! I could just read that with the little Greek I remember from math class! Cool!
I like the VEGAN one hands down. Thnaks !
I’m ready to drop the mayonnaise. This looks delicious. I have gotten sick from eating potato salad made with mayo and served outdoors at a party.
I'd like to try this one with the addition of anchovies.
Great idea!!
i made this today. i really loved it! i added in cherry tomatoes halved and feta cheese. i tried both ways. i really love vegan thecbest. thank you for this recipe
me too! Thanks :)
Dimitra's Dishes although i realize when i added tye Feta it became not vegan anymore. but it was so good
Looks delicious - my Aunt always made a version of a no mayo potato salad for family events with red onion, parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes and the dressing was red wine vinegar and olive oil which she insisted must be put on the potatoes warm so they could absorb the dressing. She called it "italian" potato salad but who knows she wasn't italian.
The non-creamy way is the way my grandmother used to make this and I actually like it that way. Now I need to go out and get some potatoes, onions and lemons.
Vegan one looks good. When I make my Greek version I also add cucumber, lettuce and toms.
My mum made her potato salad using a dressing of her homemade mint sauce, which she poured over cooked and still warm potatoes, and added chopped spring onions (scallions). (Mint Sauce: fresh mint, white vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper). Easy and delicious!
I’m Cypriot and my aunt used to make it with coriander, scallions, mint, red onion, garlic and it is my favourite my mum used to make it with parsley but I like my aunt’s version better
Both versions are great.
My parents simply added parsley and lemon juice with salt and pepper. And it was ALWAYS with Cyprus potatoes.
I will try this for sure.
I swear, everything, even potatoes in that part of the world taste better than anything :)
Dimitra's Dishes it’s the sunshine that’s for sure
Hi Dimitra. I've tried & served both. successful & both polished off. I didn't get photos but will do & send you.... soon
Anything that grows under the ground starts and cold water anything that grows above the ground starts in boiling water. An easy peasy way to remember what goes into hot and what goes into cold. :-) fresh oregano if you're not super careful is way too strong! I don't even grow fresh I just keep dried and if I did grow fresh like I used to I would tie it up and hang it upside down to dry and then just shake it over where I wanted it. I can't wait to try this this week. :-)
I like your above-ground-below-ground-rule. Only exception: eggs :)
Yup all root veggies start in cold water :)
A few days ago I had a lot of trouble peeling my hardboiled eggs, which I normally start in cold water and bring up to a boil. Apparently, this happens with really fresh eggs and one way to make it easier to peel is to actually start cooking them in hot water. I tried this with the same batch of eggs and they peeled so easily!
Umm I never mentioned eggs but yes this happens with especially fresh eggs. If you put a cold egg into a pot of boiling water you're risking them cracking right in half. I'm room temperature Egg would have no problem. I voice type so I don't know why some things are capitalized and other things aren't and I speak to a lot of people here so I'm just not going to go back to correct one word it's only one word at this point! If your eggs are fresh the tablespoon of baking soda in the water makes a great deal of difference and helps the shelves just slide right off because you are adding bicarbonate to calcium carbonate which is with the egg shell is made of. I tell people to ask for the short answer! :-)
great! making the first part before all of the junk (tomato, etc.)
Thankyou Dimitra xxx ooo
Looks delish! How long do sundried tomatoes last in the fridge? Is it different when you get it in the jar or when you get them dry? I think’ that would be a great video (how t9 store things). Cause by the time I’m going to make another recipe with Kalamata olives they look all cloudy and gross, and I end up throwing g them out...
Great idea! I will add some basics videos soon. As for the sun-dried tomatoes, I always buy the jarred variety packed in olive oil and they last very long in the refrigerator.
Hi ‘ dimithra , hw r u doing this one salad 🥗 looks gr8 nd hmmm...... I am going to preparing it for my lunch nd yes for the idea that u have given to add boiled eggs , is a gr8 thing to do coz it makes it a whole meal nd quite filling actually ‘ but I won’t be using the yolks coz they don’t suit my body type ‘ nd one thing for sure dimithra is that am enjoying every recipe that ur putting up nd it’s a wonderful experience with ur dishes , specially the heavenly cold pressed olive oils that u use makes all that difference ‘ I love olive oil ‘ but in India it’s not largely used but I use it for my regular cooking on a daily basis ‘ that’s what’s getting me sunk into ur kind of heavenly cooking for a foodie like me ‘ dimithra ‘ good night !!!
Thank you :)
Is there a difference between peeling after they're boiled vs before? My yiayia peels after too, but it's so much easier before.
My mom made this same way.
Hallo Dimitra, we have the same name. Stay healthy.
👌💐
Salad no. 1 with crumbled salt cod (bakaliaro) or chilled poached bluefish. ❤
YUMM!!! Bakaliaro is so delicious!
The only thing, which the recipe needs, is sumac. Potato and sumac go well together.
Great idea. I love sumac!
I live in Turkey near Evros area (so close to Alexandroupoli and Kavala), we can travel daily to Greece. Our cultures have a lot of common heritage. I love watching your recipies and I find them quite similar to ours.. even their names are the same :) Thanks for your passion.
You're so blessed to live there! Every time my family visits Greece, we all feel better than ever. That region is perfect. Yes, we are neighbors and do share many things in common. All the best!
what about the pine nuts??
Do you think baked potatoes would work okay?
Yes, they would work however, I do prefer boiling them for a creamier consistency. Enjoy!
Dimitra can't help but notice your fridge is very very close to the bench how do you open the door?
I will cheat and sneak in one red chili ... 😎
Potato Salad comes in so many varieties. It's probably one of the most brought potluck items (like faces, each person has their own) and I usually enjoy every unique one I've tried, but I cannot stand hard cooked potatoes. People who have a fear of overcooked vegetables often make bad potato salad.
I know what you mean. That will ruin any potato salad.. Hope you enjoy this version :)
I’ll try it with Greek full fat yogurt.
That would be delicious!
Mayonnaise and vegan mayonnaise are also preservatives and are extremely safe to take outdoors and leave in warm temperatures. The problem lies in what you put in the mayonnaise that is what may go bad not the mayonnaise and the mayonnaise will help Preserve whatever you have made because it is basically oil and vinegar lemon and vinegar whatever it preserves food. Elizabeth MD PhD nutrition science
I never knew that mayonnaise was a preservative. Every jar that I have lists eggs as an ingredient.. Go figure! You learn something new everyday :) Thanks for sharing!
She needs a bigger bowl to stir in
Cold water put oxygen in what ever ur cooking
