Potato Salad

[RollLeft 5,045]

It is best served warm and with slightly more mayo than mustard and large pieces of boiled egg.

my fam’s greatest contribution to society is my Mamere’s potato salad recipe. the secret is how the dressing is prepared and how it’s all put together...and i’ll never share the method.

it’s like one big bowl of deviled eggs...

Some of the best potato salads I've ever had are at Jewish delis.

it is rather good

[next2naus 439]

I've been making it with plain yogurt versus mayo, lots of Dill, Scallions, Shallots, lemon juice, S&P. Sometimes for the right people it gets some Cilantro.

 

I grew up eating German style in Wisconsin and it's the tits.

The yogurt gives it a slightly more sour flavor I'm guessing ?  Which I like in potato salad.  Celery seed for the win over cilantro IMO.

Warm or cold doesn't matter to me. But the rest I agree with 100%.

1 lb bacon, 5 lbs potatoes chopped with skin on, 1onion, some green onions, and some garlic, sauteed in the bacon grease.

Salt and pepper to taste.

At the end, add 1/4 cup of sugar and between 1/2 cup and a cup of white vinegar. 

Stir and serve warm with parsley mixed in.

Rudys beans and a big handful of chopped brisket and their spicy sauce is even better.  When it's cold outside....oh, boy!

[ztejas 43,605]

Zoe's Kitchen grilled potato salad is pretty damn good. Esp with some of their harissa sauce on it. 

[Errestaurants 2,570]

Mustard based all the way and served chilled.

[Surly Bevo 25,256]

[pops 7,007]

Pour in a glug of pickle juice. You're welcome. 

[next2naus 439]

bacon should only be added to a hot potato salet, its overkill otherwise

In my experience, the bacon gets a little soggy if you don't add it back.  But it's tasty either way.

[Brew 3,049]

If this shows up legibly, it is the best potato salad recipe you will ever eat. It takes entirely too much time to prep though.

I'm sure it's great, your kitchen skills are well known. I just find too many people adding bacon to too many things for my taste.

[CooterBrown 18,038]

Mayo, yellow mustard, hard boiled egg, onion, celery, dill pickle, pickle juice, jalapeño, paprika, salt,pepper.

 

Chunky or damn near mashed potatoes are both acceptable. I’ll even allow a few chopped green olives if you insist.

For something a little different, find a recipe for Pimento Cheese Potato Salad.

I agree with that. The phrase "bacon makes everything better" isn't really intended as a directive to add bacon to everything. In my kitchen, bacon is added to the collard greens and wrapped on top of the meatloaf. That's it. I don't regularly serve the bacon-bleu cheese potato salad because too many people find bleu cheese offensive. But the bacon content in it is slight, and the bacon is cooked to crunchy and then finely crumbled.

The southern style pot salad that is always on the menu is very simple and very tasty. Red potatoes, heavy mayo, light on the mustard (for color and acidity), salt, pepper, granulated garlic, and a metric fuckton of diced dill pickle. A 20 lb batch of potatoes gets 2 lbs of diced pickle.

Pro tip: boil your potatoes whole then mash them with your hands once they have cooled down (you'll add all your ingredients before mashing).

If it's not from France it's blue, not bleu.

[ChampKind 1,314]

Au contraire, mon frere!

[dcbc 14,556]

Forgot to mention to boil the potatoes before chopping and dumping in the pan in the recipe above.  Also, a better picture.

[Onboard 2.0 9,083]

Love tater salad.. always been a huge fan of Ron.

 

Can't believe it took this many posts.

[T’Boo Ted Marshall 2,740]

Warm and mostly brown mustard based is the way to go.

[ChampKind 1,314]

Warm and brown? Wrong thread bro

[T’Boo Ted Marshall 2,740]

It has some mayo but I prefer the creole mustard from Zatarain’s.
Always warm though.

[DoobieWah 1,469]

When I make potato salad, it usually, but not always, has mustard. Pickles, (and pickle juice), onions, (sometimes green onion including the tops), celery, mayo and mustard. Sometimes jalapeno or poblano. I use different mustards also as I like mustards and am always buying some Earo stuff from Phoenicia here in  Houston.

Whose "store bought" do you like? (Other than Champ's of course)/

I used to like Roegel's PS before they changed from Baker's Ribs.It was no mustard and had dill herb. They had to change it when they dropped the Baker's Ribs franchise and it's not nearly as good now. I make it that way sometimes too and I still like it.

Kenny and Ziggy's has a great mayo potato salad that's slightly sweet. A waitress once told me it's the "heavy mayo" that Champ alluded to above. I love it.

[Hank_Hill 18,939]

Made a buffalo and blue potato salad last year that was the fucking tits. Have to find the recipe.
