This is a recipe my boyfriend's mother always made for him growing up. I made it, at his request, for his birthday, and it was a huge hit at the party!

Ingredients

5 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cups mayonnaise
½ cup yellow mustard
1 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
sea salt to taste
8 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
3 dill pickles, chopped
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Place the potatoes in a large pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until tender. Drain, and place in a serving bowl.
Stir the onion, salt and pepper into the potatoes while they are still hot. This allows the potatoes to absorb the flavor. Allow to cool for about 20 minutes.
Add the mayonnaise, mustard and horseradish to the salad, and mix well. Gently stir in the eggs and dill pickles. Finish off with a generous grinding of black pepper on top. Chill for about 30 minutes before serving.
