Number Of Ingredients 14

2 eggs
1/2 c sugar
1/4 c white wine vinegar
1 - 1 1/2 c mayonnaise
1 Tbsp yellow mustard
1 tsp salt
pepper to taste
2 - 2 1/2 lb red skinned potatoes - or white, peeled, cut in half
2 c celery, thinly sliced
1/2 c red onion, chopped
5 - 6 hard cooked eggs, cut into wedges, or chopped
1/2 c green onions - sliced
1/2 c diced red pepper ( optional )
pickles, minced ( optional )

Steps:

  • 1. Dressing: Whisk eggs in small saucepan. Whisk in vinegar and 2 tablespoons water. Bring to boil over medium high heat. Boil for 3-4 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Pour into medium bowl, whisk in mayonnaise, mustard, salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until well chilled.
  • 2. Cook potatoes in large pot of boiling water for about 20 minutes or until just tender. Drain and cool. Cut into 1 inch pieces. In large serving bowl,( I use my trifle bowl ) gently toss potatoes,pickles if using, celery, red onion, eggs, peppers if using, green onions with the dressing. You can garnish with some extra green onions. Chill until serving.
  • 3. I sometimes add about 1/2 tsp of prepared horse radish also..gives it a bit of zing... Double the dressing recipe for a larger crowd. I usually make a 5 pound bag of potatoes when making this. Enjoy!
