For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the salad dressing.
If you prefer a vegetarian version, simply omit the tuna.
Sherry vinegar adds a wonderful depth of flavor compared to white vinegar.
Make sure to not overcook the potatoes, since that will result in a mushy salad.

    This Pipirrana recipe is a game-changer! I never thought a potato salad could be so light and flavorful. The olive oil dressing is a brilliant alternative to mayonnaise.
