I'M ALWAYS on the lookout for new and unique recipes. Firm and cut into squares, this potato salad looks different than the usual ones, and the dill pickle gives it a unique flavor. It also travels well and is pretty served on salad greens. -Susan Furrow, Canterbury, New Brunswick Ingredients:
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin |
2-1/4 cups milk, divided |
1 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2-1/2 cups cubed red potatoes, cooked and cooled |
1/2 cup shredded carrot |
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery |
1/3 cup chopped dill pickle |
2 tablespoons diced onion |
lettuce leaves, optional |
Directions:
1. Place the gelatin and 1 cup of milk in a saucepan; let stand for 1 minute. Cook and stir over low heat until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from the heat; stir in mayonnaise, mustard, sugar, salt, pepper and remaining milk until smooth. Chill until partially set. Fold in potatoes, carrot, celery, pickle and onion. Pour into an ungreased 8-in. square dish. Chill until firm. Cut into squares; serve on lettuce if desired. Yield: 9 servings. |
