- Transfer the mixture to a large bowl, add the relish, and stir well to combine. Add the celery, onion, and potatoes and toss gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover and chill for 1 hour. Taste and adjust seasoning before serving.
- Store the salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
