My delicious potato salad:
4 Idaho baking potatoes (about 5 in long, about 1 1/4 lbs) with skins 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup bottled French dressing (Western dressing works great) 3 large eggs 1 cup diced celery 1 cup diced sweet onion 3/4 cup sweet pickle relish 1 1/2 cups mayonnaise or mayonnaise-style creamy salad dressing 2 tablespoons of prepared mustard 1. Cover potatoes in a large saucepan with water. Bring to boiling and cook until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. When cool enough to handle but still very warm, peel the potatoes and then cube. Place the warm potatoes in a large bowl. Add the salt and French dressing, tossing to coat. You can even let the potatoes sit in teh refrigerator overnight at this point. 2. Meanwhile, place the eggs in a medium saucepan. Cover with cold water. Bring to just under a boil and simmer for 10 min. Drain and return the eggs to the pot, covering with ice water. Let stand 15 min. Peel the eggs under cold running water, beginning wtih the large end. Cut into small cubes and reverve. 3. To the potatoes, add the celery, onion and pickle relish. 4. In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise and mustard. With a spatula, fold the mayonnaise mixture into the potato mixture unto the potato mixture until thoroughly blended. Add the eggs and gently stire just to evenly distrubute. This is one of those dishes that is even better the next day. | |

I put bacon in mine. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Ex-Moderator | I make a mean version of this:
http://www.hungry-girl.co...?isid=1520 It's WAY lighter than regular potato salad and after I brought it to one BBQ last summer I was requested to bring it again several times. And many more asked for the recipe. I don't make it exactly as it's written, but fairly close. |

One of my favorite ways to make potato salad is in the style of a nicoise salad.
I cut the potatoes before boiling and leave the skins on. When they come out of the water (still just slightly underdone), I chuck them in a bowl and - while they're still hot - sprinkle them with some dry vermouth, salt and pepper. I let them stand (covered) for about five minutes, then dress the potatoes while they are still warm (they absorb more dressing that way). While the water's still boiling, I blanch some green beans that have been snapped to bite size. Get them chilled right down and let them dry. (You don't want to add any water to the salad.) Add them to the potatoes, along with some halved cherry tomatoes and some pitted nicoise or kalamata olives. (I like to cut the olives in half to ensure there are no pits remaining.) Toss it all with a bit more dressing. My vinaigrette is a combination of lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, shallots, salt and pepper, with fresh oregano, thyme and basil. It's amazing. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

What's even better is...if you have leftovers, you can put some in a foil packet, dump in a can of olive-oil packed tuna, bake it at 350 for about 25 minutes, and have what I like to call a "hot nicoise." It is total comfort food. In fact, that's what I'm having for dinner tonight. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

My grandma Sewell made a mustard based mashed potato salad that was awesome as hell.
I also make a mayo/buttermilk based potato salad that is more deli like. | |

This sounds very good...it's close to the basic recipe, which is the way I like potato salad. My recipe is similar except I prefer the taste of red potatoes with scallions, celery seed and miracle whip. I also add a bit of sugar and vinegar along with the mustard, relish and eggs. When I say I'm making potato salad, people drop whatever they're doing and show up, plate in hand. I'm lucky if I get a spoonful. Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |
