Ingredients

• 40 to 50 small red potatoes or 20 to 22 large ones (about 3 lb. total), scrubbed, halved or quartered if large

2. 2. In a large bowl, whisk mayonnaise, buttermilk, garlic, parsley, chives and vinegar. Season generously with salt and pepper.
3. 3. Drain potatoes well and let cool for 10 minutes. Add potatoes and celery to bowl and gently toss with dressing. Season with salt and pepper and serve at room temperature.
