Looking for a Potato Salad Recipe

[Rip_Some_Lip]

I have lots of potatos from the garden and I have never made potato salad. My wife doesn't like it so its up to me to make it if I want it. I would appreciate anybody that would be willing to share their recipe. I kind of like a plain salad, not too souped up. Thanks in advance for any help.

Mayo or German style?

For a simple mayo, I dont have an exact recipe.

To the cooked taters I like to add chopped onions, clery, mayo, salt, a little mustard, and what I believe is the key - chopped up hard boiled eggs! really adds to the flavor and thickens up the mayo. Thats a simple one but you can add a ton of other things, ie- capers, black olives, red peppers, shredded carrots...

Here's a pretty good basic one...

6 medium potatos

2 stalks celery, small diced

1/3 cup chopped onion (I like green onion topps added)

1 1/4 cups mayo or miracle whip

2 teaspoons yellow mustard

1 tbsp vinegar (white)

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp paprika

6 hard cooked eggs, coarsely chopped

Cook 'tatos in boiling water in covered pan for 20-25 minutes until JUST tender, drain. Peel and cube. Mix celery, onion, mayo, vinegar, mustard, salt, pepper, ina large bowl. Fold in tato's and eggs. Sprinkle top with paprika Cover and chill in fridge for 8-12 hours.

You can also chop up 1/2 green pepper and add this for a little more zing.

I keep mine pretty basic, no celery or other 'odd' stuff.

Cook potatoes (not too soft, I pressure cook mine 5 minutes), I don't bother peeling, chunk up into bowl, boil 6-8 eggs, cool, peel, chunk up into bowl, dice up small onion into bowl. I like my potato salad chunky.

Make dressing by combing about 2-3 cups Mayo, 4-5 tablespoons mustard, 2-3 tablespoons sugar, a little milk, maybe 1/4 cup, salt and pepper to taste, mix up, dip finger in and taste, add more mustard if necessary. Don't add too much milk or it gets runny. Pour over potatoes, mix up.

Good side dish to have with your grilled meat. Of course it needs to be refrigerated but I like that first bowl when everything is at room temp.

Thanks for the replies. That should get me started. Is anyone else hungry?
