I'm usually not brand loyal, but Best Foods (Hellman's) mayonnaise really does make a difference with this recipe. If you must substitute, please avoid Miracle Whip, because it just doesn't taste right. This recipe was created by my mother in 1957.
Ingredients:
3 quarts potatoes, boiled,peeled &,cubed
1 cup chopped green onion
3/4 cup chopped dill pickles (not relish)
4 ounces diced pimentos
6 hard-boiled eggs, diced
2 cups best foods mayonnaise
1/2 cup pickle brine
3 tablespoons prepared mustard
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped bell pepper
Directions:
1. Combine mayo, pickle brine, mustard, salt to make the dressing (pickle brine is the liquid from the dill pickle jar).
2. Toss with potatoes and other ingredients.
3. Optional ingredients: 1/2 Celsius finely chopped celery and/or 1/2 Celsius finely chopped bell pepper.
4. The flavors blend and improve after chilling for several hours or overnight.
