MAMA'S POTATO SALAD



Mama's Potato Salad image

This old-fashioned potato salad recipe doesn't have many ingredients, so it isn't as colorful as many that you find nowadays. But Mama made it the way her mother did, and that's the way I still make it today. Try it and see if it isn't one of the best-tasting potato salads you have ever eaten! -Sandra Anderson, New York, New York

OLD-FASHIONED POTATO SALAD



Old-Fashioned Potato Salad image

THE SECRET to the fine taste of this salad results from adding the warm potatoes to the mayonnaise mixture. My Grandma Nellie may have created the recipe herself or brought it with her from Ireland.

OLD FASHIONED POTATO SALAD RECIPE



Old Fashioned Potato Salad Recipe image

This old fashioned potato salad recipe has been passed down through generations of my family. It's hands down the best potato salad recipe I've ever tried, and you're gonna love it!

Provided by Down Redbud Drive

Categories     Side Dish

Time P1DT1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 lbs of russet potatoes
18 eggs
1 1/2 10 oz jars of Sweet Tiny Midget Pickles
1 large yellow onion
20 oz (about 2/3 of a 30 oz jar) of Miracle Whip
1/2 cup yellow mustard
1/2 cup mayo
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Clean the potatoes and boil them with the peel on. Boil them until the peel begins to crack, that's how you'll know they're done.
  • Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool until you can handle them.
  • Hard boil the 18 eggs, and then remove them from the water until they're cool. This step can also be done in advance if you want to save some waiting time for them to cool.
  • Peel the potatoes, then chop them into bite size pieces (about 1 inch cubes). Place the chopped potato in a very large bowl.
  • Once the boiled eggs have cooled enough to peel, chop them into small pieces. Add the chopped pieces to the potatoes.
  • Chop the onion and the pickles into very small, minced pieces. Grandma always made us do this by hand, but you can do it with a food chopper if you're pressed for time.
  • Add the pickles and the onions to the potatoes and eggs.
  • Add in and mix the miracle whip, mayo, yellow mustard, and salt and then use a large spoon to mix until it's all incorporated.
  • Cover the potato salad and place it in the fridge for 24 hours, or overnight if you waited til last minute.
  • If the potato salad seems very dry the next day, it's because the potatoes absorbed some of the liquid. Add up to half a cup more of miracle whip or mayo (whatever you prefer) to help re-moisten it.

POTATO SALAD



Potato Salad image

You're gonna love this simple, old-fashioned potato salad! It is easy to make, and will be a big hit at your next family BBQ or picnic!

Provided by JB @ The Grateful Girl Cooks!

Categories     Salad

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 large "baker" sized russet potatoes ((or 8-9 small potatoes))
2 green onions (, sliced (green and white parts))
4 Claussen dill pickle spears ((or 1 LARGE Claussen whole dill), chopped)
3 hard boiled eggs ((chop 2 of them, reserve 1 for garnish, if desired))
5 HEAPING Tablespoons mayonnaise ((really big heapings-start with this-add more if necessary))
1/2 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
3 Tablespoons pickle juice ((straight from the jar!))
Salt and black pepper (, to taste)
Use 1 reserved hard-boiled egg (, thinly sliced)
Additional sliced green onions ((green part) OR chopped fresh parsley)
Paprika ((to lightly sprinkle on top of salad))

Steps:

  • Boil potatoes (with skin on) until fork tender (time will vary depending on size of potatoes). It will typically take between 35 and 50 minutes. If done, you should be able to insert a knife blade into the potato with no problem. When done, drain, and peel potatoes. Once cool, cut potatoes into chunks and place into large bowl.
  • Slice green onions and chop dill pickle spears. Add to potatoes. Chop 2 of the 3 hard boiled eggs, and add to potatoes.
  • Mix up "dressing" for salad in a separate bowl, by mixing mayonnaise, mustard, pickle juice, and salt and pepper (start with 1/2 teaspoon salt/pepper).
  • Pour the "dressing" over the potato mixture. Stir gently to fully combine ingredients. If more "moisture" is needed, add more mayonnaise and continue stirring until fully coated. (amount of "dressing" and additional mayo will vary, due to amount and size of potatoes used).
  • Taste test. Add more salt/pepper, if needed. (I usually end up adding a bit more salt).
  • Place potato salad into serving bowl. Garnish top with thin slices of hard-boiled egg, then add additional sliced green onion (the green part) OR chopped fresh parsley. Lightly sprinkle with paprika.
  • Refrigerate for 5-6 hours (for BEST flavor and "chill" factor); Serve, and enjoy!

BEST CLASSIC POTATO SALAD



Best Classic Potato Salad image

Creamy, tangy, and crunchy, with a hint of spice and sweetness from pickles, this reminds me of my grandmother's potato salad served every Easter or any time we had barbecue. She always dotted it with olives for a finishing touch and a perfect briny addition. This is the best classic version of good old-fashioned, Southern-style potato salad. Not too mayonaissey with just the right amount of tang! Serve with grilled or smoked meats as the perfect side dish.

Provided by NicoleMcmom

Time 2h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 pounds russet potatoes, peeled
4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided, or to taste
4 large eggs
1 cup mayonnaise
⅓ cup sour cream
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
5 stalks green onions, sliced (white and green parts)
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
½ cup chopped spicy sweet dill pickles (such as Wickles™), plus 2 teaspoons pickle juice
¾ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground paprika
¼ cup sliced green olives with pimientos

Steps:

  • Cut potatoes into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Place in a large pot and add water to cover by 2 inches. Add 3 teaspoons salt and eggs; bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Reduce heat and simmer 9 minutes. Remove eggs to an ice bath. Drain potatoes when fork-tender; they may need another minute or so.
  • Peel and chop eggs and set aside.
  • Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, onions, celery, dill, pickles, juice and pepper in a large bowl; stir to combine. Stir in potatoes and eggs until well blended, mashing potatoes very slightly. Check for seasoning and add up to 1 teaspoon salt if desired.
