I've tried MANY potato salads, but I keep coming back to my mother's recipe. The secret to success is the sweet pickle juice and combining the dressing with hot potatoes! Ingredients:
2 lbs potatoes |
3 green onions, sliced thin |
1/4 cup hellman mayonnaise (low fat ok) |
1/4 cup miracle whip (low fat ok) |
1/4 cup sour cream (low fat ok) |
2 tablespoons pickle juice, from sweet mixed pickles |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon ground celery seed |
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard (i like keene's) |
5 hard-boiled eggs |
paprika |
Directions:
1. POTATOES: Peel and cook in boiling, salted water for 20- 30 minutes. 2. DRESSING: Combine mayo, salad dressing, sour cream, pickle juice, pepper, celery and mustard in a small bowl. 3. Grate 2 of the hard boiled eggs into the mixture& stir. 4. ASSEMBLY: Drain potatoes well and cut into cubes while they are still hot (be careful not to burn your fingers). 5. Combine with green onions in a large bowl. 6. Stir in dressing. 7. Slice the remaining 3 eggs and arrange on top. 8. Sprinkle with paprika and chill for a couple of hours before serving. |
