Time 3h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 ¾ pounds Idaho® Russet Potatoes
8 large hard-boiled eggs
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
½ cup dill pickles, chopped
¼ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup Miracle Whip
½ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons brine from a pickle jar
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Scrub Idaho® Russet Potatoes well, but do not peel. Place potatoes in a stockpot, add water to cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook 12 to 15 minutes, or until a knife can easily pierce the potatoes but they are still firm. Pour off the hot water and add cold water to the pot to help cool down the potatoes. Set potatoes aside while preparing the remaining ingredients.
  • Remove the yolks from 4 of the hard-boiled eggs. Discard or save for another use. Roughly chop the 4 egg whites and 2 of the whole eggs, saving 2 for garnish. Add the chopped eggs to a large mixing bowl. Add the onion and chopped pickles to the bowl.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Miracle Whip, Greek yogurt, dill pickle brine, yellow mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk well to combine; set aside.
  • Remove the cooled potatoes from the pot of water. With a paring knife, remove the potato peels (they will come off easily). Cut the potatoes into small cubes and add to the other ingredients in the mixing bowl. With a wooden spoon, gently toss the salad ingredients to mix. Add the dressing mixture and gently toss again to coat all ingredients well.
  • Transfer potato salad to a serving bowl. Cut the remaining 2 eggs into thin slices and arrange them around the salad to garnish. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving (preferably overnight) to let the flavors combine.

BEST CLASSIC POTATO SALAD



Best Classic Potato Salad image

Creamy, tangy, and crunchy, with a hint of spice and sweetness from pickles, this reminds me of my grandmother's potato salad served every Easter or any time we had barbecue. She always dotted it with olives for a finishing touch and a perfect briny addition. This is the best classic version of good old-fashioned, Southern-style potato salad. Not too mayonaissey with just the right amount of tang! Serve with grilled or smoked meats as the perfect side dish.

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 pounds russet potatoes, peeled
4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided, or to taste
4 large eggs
1 cup mayonnaise
⅓ cup sour cream
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
5 stalks green onions, sliced (white and green parts)
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
½ cup chopped spicy sweet dill pickles (such as Wickles™), plus 2 teaspoons pickle juice
¾ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground paprika
¼ cup sliced green olives with pimientos

Steps:

  • Cut potatoes into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Place in a large pot and add water to cover by 2 inches. Add 3 teaspoons salt and eggs; bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Reduce heat and simmer 9 minutes. Remove eggs to an ice bath. Drain potatoes when fork-tender; they may need another minute or so.
  • Peel and chop eggs and set aside.
  • Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, onions, celery, dill, pickles, juice and pepper in a large bowl; stir to combine. Stir in potatoes and eggs until well blended, mashing potatoes very slightly. Check for seasoning and add up to 1 teaspoon salt if desired.

POTATO SALAD

The secret to Ina Garden's zesty Potato Salad recipe from Barefoot Contessa on Food Network? Buttermilk and two mustards: Dijon and whole grain.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pounds small white potatoes
Kosher salt
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped red onion

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes and 2 tablespoons of salt in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Allow the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, dill, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Set aside.
  • When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in quarters or in half, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. While the potatoes are still warm, pour enough dressing over them to moisten. Add the celery and red onion, 2 teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss well, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.

IDA'S GREAT MISTAKE POTATO SALAD



Ida's Great Mistake Potato Salad image

As a young bride, my mother-in-law volunteered to bring potato salad to a luncheon. She had never made it before, but she was sure she could figure it out. She knew potatoes and hard boiled eggs. She remembered something crunchy -- celery -- and she remembered something green. She put in chopped green pimiento olives, not pickle relish! Her mistake turned out to be an inadvertent stroke of genius. You won't believe how good it is!
