When I made this, I followed the instructions as they were written, and the salad was a bit bland. The only seasoning that was used was added to the dressing, and it wasn’t enough. I recommend adding salt and pepper to the diced potatoes to give this more flavor. I opted to leave the skin on the potatoes, but this can be left to personal preference.
