Prepare Potatoes:
Quarter the potatoes and place them in a large pot. Fill with water until potatoes are covered by about two inches.
Add about two teaspoons of salt to the water.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer.
Cook until fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes depending on the size of the potato.
Hard Boil Eggs:
Place eggs in a medium pot and cover with water (about an inch above eggs).
Add a teaspoon of salt and vinegar to the water.
Bring to a boil, then turn off the burner and cover the pot.
Leave for ten minutes, then drain and cool the eggs in cold water.
Prepare Ingredients:
Drizzle apple cider vinegar over drained potatoes and toss. Set aside.
Slice red onion thinly and chop into shorter pieces. Drizzle lemon juice over, toss, and set aside.
Chop dill and chives, slice celery stalks, peel and chop the apple, peel and chop the hard-boiled eggs, and chop enough pickles to fill a measuring cup.
Make Dressing:
In a medium bowl, mix mayonnaise, sour cream, dijon mustard, and celery seeds.
Add chopped pickles and juice, mix well, and set aside.
Assemble Salad:
Pour the dressing over the potatoes and toss.
Add onion, apple, celery, dill, chives, and eggs, and gently mix.
Sprinkle with paprika before serving.
