  1. Cut potatoes into uniform 3/4 inch dice or chunks.

    by tasting them. Drain potatoes and place in a full-size 4-inch
    steamtable pan. Use 1 pan for 24 servings; use 2 pans for 48
    servings.
  3. Add celery to the cooked potatoes.
    Combine the buttermilk, mayonnaise, sour cream, white vinegar,
    onion powder, granulated garlic, parsley, salt, chives, dill weed
    and ground black pepper. Whisk until well combined. Pour the
    ranch dressing over the warm potatoes and gently stir to coat the
    potatoes.
  4. Cover the pan partially and refrigerate until chilled to
    40°F, at least 2 hours or over night. Hold at or below 40°F until
    ready to serve.
