FAQs

What is vegan potato salad made of?

It can vary from recipe to recipe but potatoes are always included! Chopped onion, celery, seasonings and a creamy dressing with mustard or not are classics that are always included. The creamy dressing gets it creaminess from either cashews, white beans, tofu or vegan mayo.

How do I keep potatoes from falling apart in potato salad?

Using the correct potato can help! White potatoes, red potatoes or golden potatoes work great. Avoid russet potatoes as they are too starchy and will fall apart. Remove your potatoes from the boiling water as soon as they are tender, this helps prevent overcooking.

Should I let my potatoes cool before adding them to potato salad?

While your potatoes don’t need to be cold, it is a good idea to let them cool for at least 30 minutes.
