POTATO SALAD
There are many ways to make potato salad. I once cooked for a family who marinated potatoes in a sort of Italian dressing and called that potato salad. My mother-in-law makes hers with lots of sweet pickles, and it tastes very good. This is a basic recipe, so you can start here and experiment to satisfy your own tastes.
6-8 of the red or white potatoes that you find in the refrigerated produce section.
There are also several gourmet potato varieties that are fun to use in potato salad because of the colors.
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 - 1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 - 1/2 cup ranch dressing
5 hard boiled eggs - chopped or sliced (See "Deviled Eggs" for cooking directions.)
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
2 large dill pickles - diced (chopped into small pieces)
1 teaspoon dehydrated dill herb
Onions (always optional)
Steam the potatoes. Cool and peel. Chop the potatoes into pieces about 1" in size. Put potatoes into a very large mixing bowl. Add all of the other ingredients and mix gently, but thoroughly. Chill for 1 hour or more before serving. Sprinkle paprika on top.
Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.
