Tonya's Notes:
Well, I'm a huge balsamic vinegar fan AND red potato fan, so this potato salad is one of my favorites of all the potato salads I've tasted. Pictures are hard to give it justice ...

Comments from the Test Kitchen:

This is an interesting (and tasty!) take on traditional potato salad. It was a big hit with my family!

Do you cut up the potatoes or put them in the potato salad whole?

Hi Susan,
I cut them up because I think they are attractive that way. Thanks!

I will save this recipe and try it on my guests later this month. I love balsamic vinegar and maybe someone can answer a question. Every recipe I've looked at thru the years that call for balsamic vinegar do not specify regular or sweet. I love the sweet balsamic and even put it in the pan when making turkey burgers. I keep both on hand and just use my own preference. Any ideas or suggestions?

My oldest daughter (soon to be 24) doesn't "do" mayonnaise, but loves potato salad so I'm constantly on the lookout for variations. This one sounds great and I can't to try it on her ... and me too, lol! Sounds great, thanks for sharing!
