1

Scrub red potatoes with a stiff vegetable brush to remove dirt.

2

Boil the whole washed potatoes in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes.

3

While the potatoes are cooking, chop hard-boiled eggs into small pieces.

4

In a bowl, mix minced red onion, diced celery, a bit of salt, and vinegar to flavor the vegetables.

5

Check the potatoes for doneness by inserting a knife; if it goes in cleanly, they're cooked.

6

Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly until warm enough to cut.

7

In a large bowl, add the warm potatoes, salt, and fresh ground black pepper, and mix gently to avoid breaking the potatoes.

8

Once the potatoes are cool, add brown mustard, sweet relish, garlic powder, and mayonnaise, and mix well.

9

Add the chopped hard-boiled eggs and taste to adjust seasoning if necessary.

10

Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.

11

Before serving, sprinkle with paprika and optionally add finely sliced scallions for garnish.
