Directions
- Place the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook 10–12 minutes until fork-tender.
- Drain the potatoes into a colander and rinse under cold water. Let them cool in a bowl in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes before cutting into cubes, if not already cut.
- While the potatoes cool, cook the diced bacon in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy, about 5–6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, white wine vinegar, mustard, and pepper to make the dressing.
- Place the cubed potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the potatoes and gently stir to coat evenly.
- Add bacon, green onions, dill, and parsley. Gently stir to combine.
- Let the salad sit for at least 20 minutes to allow flavors to meld together before serving.
