2. Put the potatoes into a large bowl. Chop into small pieces, if desired. Add the onion and stir to combine. 
3. Combine the mustard, vinegar, olive oil, broth and sugar in a bowl. Whisk to combine. Pour it over the potatoes and mix well. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. 
4. Let the potato salad sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving, if you can, to let the flavors meld. Garnish with parsley or green onions. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.
