Sams Snappy Potato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a roaring boil over high heat.
• Place quartered and skinned potatoes into the water until tender.
• Drain water and set aside 1/3 of the potatoes and place the rest in a large bowl.
• Mash the potatoes and then fold in the remaining potatoes.
• Slice your hard-boiled eggs and fold in with the potatoes, setting aside a few to place on top.
• Fold in the chopped celery.
• In another bowl, add the mayonnaise and the remaining dressing ingredients - yellow mustard, white onion, sweet pickle relish, and celery seed. Mix together until creamy.
• Fold the dressing with the potato mixture until everything is combined.
• Refrigerate until ready to serve - ideally you will let it chill for a few hours before serving.

Steps:

• Trim off ends of snap peas and remove strings.
• In a saucepan, add snap peas and cover with water. Add salt, bring to a boil and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until crisp and tender. Drain.
• Place potatoes in a saucepan. Add water to cover and salt. Bring to a boil, simmer for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Do not overcook. Drain. The salad should be made while potatoes are still warm.
• Peel potatoes and cut them into 1/4-inch slices. Leave skins on if desired. Place slices in a bowl and add snap peas. Add vinegar, oil, shallots, garlic, chervil, salt and pepper. Toss and blend well. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Set the potatoes in a large pot; add 1 tablespoon salt and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Set over high heat and cook just until fork-tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. (You still want the potatoes to still have some shape to avoid turning the dish into mashed potatoes.) Drain potatoes, and set them aside to cool.
• As potatoes cool, make the dressing: To a large bowl, add mayonnaise, relish, mustard and granulated onion; whisk to combine.
• Add the potatoes to the dressing, along with the diced hard-boiled eggs, and celery, if using; stir gently to combine. Taste and season with salt and black pepper as needed.
• Chill for at least 2 hours, and up to overnight. Serve cold. Finish with a sprinkle of paprika. Potato salad will keep for 4 days in an airtight container.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Add salmon; toss lightly. In a small bowl, combine the dressing ingredients; mix well. Pour over the salad and stir gently. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
