Suburban Potato Salad – Recipe

potato-salad-1There are many different recipes for potato salad, but one of my favorite ones is the Suburban Potato Salad.   I love the added color and texture created by the fruit and vegetables.

It makes a very nice addition to other party foods, as well as a side dish for lunch, dinner, picnic, or barbecue.

This recipe makes about 6 cups of salad.

  • 2 Tbs. onions, chopped
  • 1 cup green peas, cooked (al dente)
  • 1 cup carrots (cubed ¼ inch), cooked (al dente),
  • 5 hard boiled eggs, chopped
  • ½ green apple, peeled and cubed (¼ inch)
  • 2 Tbs. minced Claussen Pickles
  • 1 Tbs. chopped dill (optional)

  • 2 Tbs. Dijon mustard
  • 2Tbs. Claussen Pickle brine

Instructions

  1. Wash the potatoes, leave skin on, cover with cold water, bring to boil and cook until semi-cooked (they should feel firm, when testing the center with a toothpick).
  2. Remove potatoes, drain, and cool off with cold water.
  3. Peel the potatoes, by scraping the peel off, and removing all the eyes.
  4. Cut into small (1/2 inch) cubes, or smaller if you like.
  5. Add onions, green peas, carrots, eggs, pickles, apple, dill, salt and pepper.
  6. Fold in gently.
  7. Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard and pickle brine.
  8. Pour over potato salad and fold in gently (do not over mix, as not to break down the vegetables).

Notes

Make sure not to over cook the potatoes, carrots and peas, so that the salad does not become mushy, during mixing time.
