WORLD'S BEST POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 20 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain. Cool, peel and dice. Transfer to a large bowl, and toss with the onion, celery, 1 teaspoon of salt, and hard-cooked eggs.
• While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together 2 eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan. Stir in the vinegar, milk, and mustard. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in the butter. Refrigerate until cool, then stir in the mayonnaise.
• Stir the dressing into the bowl of potato salad gently until evenly coated. Chill several hours or overnight before serving for best flavor.

CHOPPED SALAD

Steps:

• In a colander or strainer, salt the cabbage with at least a tablespoonful and toss. In another colander, combine the carrots, onion, cucumbers and turnip, kohlrabi or beet (the beet will bleed, so you may want to do that separately), and salt with at least a tablespoonful and toss.
• As the cabbage wilts, squeeze out a little excess liquid. Toss the other vegetables from time to time. They can stay in the salt for up to an hour or as little as 15 minutes, during which time you can prepare the other vegetables.
• Rinse the salted vegetables lightly and spin in a salad spinner for a few seconds to remove excess liquid. Toss with the unsalted vegetables and dress with the olive oil, lemon juice and salt and pepper. Taste, adjust seasoning and serve. The salad will keep for a couple of days.
