Madison Avenue Potato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    For the Salad
    4 lbs white rose potatoes or 4 lbs yukon gold potatoes
    1 (2 1/4 ounce) can black olives, chopped
    2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
    1 dill pickle, chopped
    3 stalks celery, chopped
    For the Dressing
    6 tablespoons vegetable oil
    4 tablespoons wine vinegar (I use dill pickle juice)
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    1/3 cup mayonnaise
    1/3 cup sour cream
    1 small onion, grated
    salt and black pepper (I use about 1/2 tsp of each)
Preparation
    Cover whole, unpeeled potatoes with water in a large pot. Bring to boil. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until a fork easily slides into the center without resistance. If desired, peel the skins off. Dice.
    While the potatoes cook, whisk together the dressing ingredients. Taste for seasoning; add salt and pepper to taste.
    Place all salad ingredients in a large bowl. Pour dressing over the top and stir to combine; ideally, the potatoes will still be warm at this point. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for several hours to allow the flavors to blend.
