Potato Salad Serves 10 Recipes

Steps:

• Boil potatoes (with skin), carrots and eggs (need to be hard eggs), let cool.
• Peel potatoes and cut into small squares, carrots into thin circles, peel eggs and chop in small pieces, cut tomatoes in small squares, place all in a salad bowl.
• Cook peas and add to salad, mix all with mayo.
• Keep in fridge until ready to be served.
• Pepper can be added as an option.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, cook the potatoes: Cover with warm water, put a lid on the pan and boil until fork tender, about 30 minutes, depending on the variety of potato. Baking potatoes sometimes turn mushy; waxy red or white potatoes hold their shape much better.
• When potatoes are done, immediately remove them from the heat; pour off hot water and cover with cold tap water. chill them a bit, but don't soak them.
• When unpeeled potatoes are barely cool enough to handle, remove the skins (if they seem to stick, rinse quickly in cold water, then resume peeling); dice and measure into a very large bowl. Add salt, pepper, celery, pickles, eggs, and onion. Blend in mayonnaise, pickle juice, and mustard (salad should be a bit moist, as it firms up when chilled).
• Fold in the whole or sliced olives, or use as a garnish. Chill.
• NOTE: When taking potato salad to a picnic supper, keep chilled until served, and as soon as the meal is over return salad to the ice chest, or throw away leftovers. Makes about 25 half cup servings.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool, peel and chop.
• Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil; cover, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop.
• In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, eggs, celery, onion, relish, garlic salt, celery salt, mustard, pepper and mayonnaise. Mix together well and refrigerate until chilled.
