MOM'S EASY POTATO SALAD RECIPE



Mom's Easy Potato Salad Recipe image

Everyone loves a good potato salad on a hot summer day! If you haven't made it for awhile, this is a new recipe you NEED to try!

Provided by Kristen Hills

Categories     Side Dish

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 potatoes (cooked)
8 eggs (hard boiled)
¾ cup dill or sweet pickles (diced)
2 celery stalks (diced)
1 cup mayonnaise ((you could also use Miracle Whip))
3 Tablespoons yellow mustard
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon white vinegar
salt and pepper (to taste)
Salad Supreme Seasoning (optional to sprinkle on top)

Steps:

  • Bring two pots of water to a boil. In one pot boil your potatoes for about 30-40 minutes, or until fork can easily pierce through the potato, but not too soft that they just fall apart. Drain water off of potatoes and let them cool (I usually put the potatoes in the fridge to cool).
  • Once your potatoes are cool, peel and dice. Place diced potatoes, diced celery, and pickles in a large bowl. Dice the eggs and add it to the bowl (sometimes I will set aside 1 egg and slice it to put on top of the potato salad for presentation - totally not necessary, it's just what my mom always did).
  • In a separate small bowl, mix your mayonnaise, mustard, sugar, vinegar all together. Pour your sauce over the potato mixture in the big bowl and gently fold together. Add salt and pepper to taste. If it is dry, you can add more mayo to get it the texture you like. Top with Salad Supreme seasoning. As mentioned before, you can also save 1 hard boiled egg to slice and add it to the top.

PERFECT POTATO SALAD



Perfect Potato Salad image

This is my mother Pauline's recipe. It's pretty much a classic American salad but remember, if you add onions, use sweet onions and chop with a very sharp knife, allow potatoes to cool to room temp before dressing them, and always taste for salt.

Time 15h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 pounds large russet potatoes
¼ cup kosher salt
10 cups cold water
½ cup finely diced celery
2 tablespoons finely diced sweet onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and cut into chunks
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives for garnish
1 pinch paprika for garnish
1 ¼ cups mayonnaise, or more if needed
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
cayenne pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place whole potatoes in a pot with 1/4 cup kosher salt. Cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until tender, about 40 minutes (depending on size). Transfer cooked potatoes to a plate. Allow them to cool to room temperature.
  • When potatoes are completely cooled, peel off the skin. Cut into larger than bite-size pieces as the pieces will break down slightly when you toss with the dressing. Transfer potato pieces to a mixing bowl. Add celery, onions, parsley, chopped hard-boiled eggs. Combine ingredients, breaking up larger pieces of potato.
  • Place mayonnaise in mixing bowl. Add cider vinegar, mustard, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Whisk until well combined.
  • Pour mayonnaise mixture onto potatoes; stir until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled, 2 to 3 hours. Taste for seasonings and texture. Salad may need a bit more salt and another spoonful of mayonnaise.
