I picked up a tip years ago from a decades old edition of JOC. When
potatoes have been cooked and diced and are still quite warm, sprinkle on
several tablespoons of chicken broth and the same of the vinegar of your
choice. (I usually use cider vinegar.) The potatoes will absorb the
liquids and flavors. Allow to cool before adding whatever else you add to
your potato salad and before adding your dressing. At the same time I add
the broth and vinegar, I also add a light sprinkling of celery seed and any
dried herbs I might be using. Toss the mixture gently a few times while
potatoes are cooling.
