Notes
If you are making this salad more than 1 day in advance, I recommend substituting the cucumber with an additional ½ cup of celery to avoid any moisture leaking into the salad.
For crispier potatoes, you may bake for up to 1 hour until your desired level of crispiness is reached.
To air fry the potatoes, you can bake at 400F for about 15 minutes
