Färskpotatissallad | Traditional Salad From Sweden, Northern Europe | TasteAtlas

Färskpotatissallad

Färskpotatissallad is a traditional potato salad. Although there are many variations, the salad is usually made with a combination of new potatoes, sour cream or crème fraîche, chopped dill, and mayonnaise. The new potatoes are scrubbed and boiled in salted water until soft.


They're drained and cut into smaller chunks. The crème fraîche or sour cream is mixed with the mayonnaise and dill, and the potato chunks are then folded into the mixture. Färkspotatissallad is well-chilled for at least one hour before serving.


This potato salad is often served as part of a smorgäsbord buffet or Swedish Midsummer's Eve picnics.
