AMAZING POTATO SALAD



Amazing Potato Salad image

I found this recipe in my Food and Wine magazine back in June 1997. The lady who created it is named Elizabeth. I have been making it this way since then. I have made it for parties and it is so liked by everyone that most people leave with the recipe. I hope you all enjoy this as much as we have. NOTE: Cook time and prep time does not include cooling times for eggs and potatoes. Don't let the amount of servings scare you, I normally reduce the amounts depending on how many people I am feeding. Just cut everything in half.

MADDY'S AMAZING POTATO SALAD



Maddy's Amazing Potato Salad image

I spent quite a few years fiddling with this recipe to achieve a great taste. This recipe is for two or three people. You can always increase the amounts for more servings.

Provided by Maddy HELEINE

Categories     Potatoes

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 large potatoes (golds, russets your choice)
3 large hard boiled eggs
1/4 medium sweet onion
1 stalk(s) celery chopped
2 large heaping tablespoons of mayonnaise
1 tsp heaping teaspoon of plain yellow mustard
1 tsp dried dill flakes
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2-3 pkg artificial sweetner

Steps:

  • 1. Boil 3 Large whole potatoes (skin still on) until they are slightly tender. I like russets and they hold together well. I stick a fork in them to see if it slides in easily, and then they are done. Boil 3 large eggs, and then set the whole potatoes and eggs in the refrigerator for an hour until they are cool.
  • 2. Peel the potatoes after they are cool. I scrape them using the back of a butter knife as the skins will easily peel right off that way using that method. Cut the potatoes down the middle length wise, and then slice thinly. (about 1/8 inch slices.) Put them in a bowl.
  • 3. Peel the eggs and then slice using an egg slicer or knife until they are about 1/8 of an inch thick. Add them to the bowl.
  • 4. Chop a stalk of celery into small pieces and slice 1/4 sweet onion into thin pieces. Add both to the bowl that has the potatoes and eggs in it.
  • 5. In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper, dill flakes and 2-3 packs of artificial sweetener until combined. I use artificial sweetener to avoid the grainy taste of regular sugar. Add this mixture to the bowl with the other ingredients and stir until blended.
  • 6. You can add more or less artificial sweetener depending on your taste. This recipe tastes best with the dill and sweeter have the perfect savory/sweet taste.
  • 7. Serve at room temperature.

AMAZING POTATO SALAD

My family loves this potato salad. The bacon and green onions make it so delicious. I was given a vague recipe from a friend who never measured the ingredients. A few years later, I developed this recipe. I don't even like sandwich spread but I love this.

8-10 potatoes, russets (approx 3-3 1/2 lbs), boiled and cut into 3/4 to 1 inch cubes and cooled.

1/2 to 3/4 c sandwich spread (not miracle whip but the spread that resembles thousand island dressing)
4-5 green onions chopped
7 slices bacon, fried and crumbled
1 1/2 to 2 Tbsp bacon drippings
1 1/2 Tbsp dill pickle relish or finely chopped dill pickle
1 egg, hard boiled and chopped (i go light on the egg because i'm the only one that likes it)
1/4 tsp salt (to taste)
paprika, sweet mild

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare all ingredients as indicated in the ingredients list. Be sure to cool the potatoes if you would like them to retain their shape or they will be mashed while mixing in the other ingredients.

  • 3. Sprinkle with paprika for a little color, cover, and chill until served. It has the best flavor the next day. :)
