Now, let’s get to the best potato salad with apple cider vinegar.
I have a confession to make.
This recipe doesn’t actually have apple cider vinegar in it. It calls for rice wine vinegar.
Instead, the apple flavor in this recipe comes from fresh apples themselves!
The delicious crunch and crispiness that the apples add to the potato salad make this salad so fresh and much better than creamy potato salads. Trust me, if you can’t have eggs, dairy, or gluten, you will NOT miss any of them in this amazing potato salad.
Even so, feel free to substitute the rice wine vinegar with apple cider vinegar to make this a true potato salad with apple cider vinegar. You can use ANY vinegar including white vinegar, if that’s what you have in your pantry.

Recipe FAQ’s
Why do you put vinegar in potato salad?
Using vinegar adds freshness, and allows you to remove the creamy alternative like mayo. Not only does this make the potato salad delicious, but it also makes the potato salad very shelf stable and easy to bring to BBQs, picnics, potlucks, and pack in a lunch box without spoiling.
2. What if I put too much apple cider vinegar in my potato salad?
I have heard that lemon zest will calm the taste. If that doesn’t work, I would boil a few more potatoes and double the recipe (without adding any more vinegar). Since this salad lasts a few days in the fridge you can add it to lunches and use it as a side dish for several nights.
