MOM'S CLASSIC POTATO SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place the potatoes in the pot and cover. Simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and rinse under cold water until the potatoes are cool. Cut the potatoes into ½" chunks, peeling the skin off as you go (although if you like, you can keep the skin on).
• Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Pour in the vinegar, then add in the celery, onion, boiled egg, pickles (if desired), mayo, and seasonings. Using a spatula, stir the mixture until evenly coated. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill, for about 1 hour.

POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Do not peel potatoes. In a large stock pot, cover potatoes with cold water. Cover the pot and bring potatoes to a boil over high heat (could take 20 minutes or more to GET to a boil.) Once boiling begins, remove the lid. Turn down to medium and gently boil uncovered for 15 minutes. Should be able to pierce with knife but potatoes should be firm and hold their shape.
• Drain then plunge into ice bath. Peel skins when they are cool enough to handle. Chop into bite sized pieces and place in a large bowl. Sprinkle warm potatoes with 1/4 cup pickle juice, toss to distribute. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine mayo, sour cream, mustard, garlic powder, celery salt, black pepper, and salt. Taste for seasoning, add more salt if you like. Set aside.
• To the bowl with potatoes, add boiled eggs, celery, bell pepper, onion, pickle, and chives. Top with dressing and toss until completely coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (preferably overnight) to allow flavors to mingle.

MY MOTHER'S POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• You can use any potato you want, and you can keep the skins or peel them. I usually use red potatoes, leave the skins on and cut into bite sized pieces. Cook until tender, but not enough where they could be mashed potatoes.
• Cook the bacon. I usually cut this into bite sized pieces, and cook until done. Save the grease! This is very important. I remove the bacon from the grease to stop it from cooking.
• Cook the eggs so that they are hard-boiled.
• Let the potatoes and eggs cool. Peel the eggs, and cut them into small pieces.
• Mix everything together (including the bacon grease!). Celery salt can be potent, so do a little at a time until you like the taste. I used a good amount of mayonnaise and dijon mustard. Again, go with what tastes good.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
