Sweet potatoes are more nutritious.

Start by boiling the small creamy potatoes whole in salted water.

Add hard boiled eggs to a saucepan with water, bring to a boil, turn off the heat and cover for about 12 minutes.

Chop half of a medium red onion small and add it to a bowl with cold water to deflame the onion.

Chop 3 stalks of celery small.

Chop 1 to 2 dill pickles small.

Once the potatoes are done, take them out of the boiling water and place them into a bowl with ice water to stop cooking.

Chop some fresh herbs: 1/4 cup of parsley and dill, or other fine herbs like cilantro, tarragon, mint, or chives.

Peel and chop the hard boiled eggs, or leave them out if you prefer.

Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them (or leave the peel on if preferred) and chop into large chunks.

Scatter 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar over the chopped potatoes before adding them to the bowl.

In a separate bowl, make the dressing by combining 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, and 1 tablespoon yellow mustard.

Add the potatoes, chopped onion, celery, pickles, herbs, and eggs to the bowl with the dressing.

Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper, starting with 1/4 teaspoon each and adjusting to taste.
