NOT YO MAMA'S POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot filled with water and bring to boil over high heat. Generously salt water. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes are fork-tender, 15-20 minutes, depending on potato size. Drain and set aside.
• While potatoes are cooking, place the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until crispy, turning as needed. Place on paper towel lined plate. Once cooled, break into bite-size pieces.
• In a small bowl, mix olive oil, vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt, and pepper. Drizzle over warm potatoes. Top with crispy bacon, green onions, parsley, and optional parmesan. Season with additional salt and pepper.
• Serve warm, room temperature, or cold. Best served warm while bacon is nice and crispy.

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.

Steps:

• 1. In a large 3 - 5 quart pot, filled with a little over half of water, add 1 tablespoon of salt and potatoes, cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until just fork tender but do not over cook ( 5 - 7 minutes). Drain potatoes and let cool.
• 2. While the potatoes are cooling, make the dressing for the potato salad. In a medium size bowl, combine olive oil, cooking crème, mayo, mustard, garlic, celery seeds and half of the parsley. Mix well, then set aside.
• 3. After potatoes have cool down, add them to the bowl; toss with dressing. Then add dice peppers, chives, and hard boiled eggs. Mix well, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Let salad chill to allow all the flavors come together.
• 4. Serve salad in a bed of lettuce and garnish with sliced cherry tomatoes and the balance of parsley.

MOM'S POTATO SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes in lightly salted water, until tender just to the fork.
• Drain well and as soon as you can handle them, peel, and cut them into 1/2 inch dice.
• Toss in a bowl along with the lemon juice, chopped onions, oil and salt to taste. This preliminary dressing while very warm gives the potatoes extra flavour and coats them. This prevents them from absorbing too much mayonnaise later on. Allow to cool.
• Add the black pepper, celery, chopped eggs and cucumber. Blend 1/2 cup of the mayonnaise with the salad cream, vinegar, and the sugar. Pour this over the potato salad, gently folding until all pieces are coated. Add the remaining mayonnaise only if the salad seems dry. Taste and adjust the seasoning as required. Spoon into a clean bowl and smooth the top. Lay the sliced hard boil egg over top. Cover and chill for several hours.
• Just before serving, sprinkle with some chopped fresh chives, salad cress or chopped parsley, if using, and ground paprika. Delicious!!
