Here, it is -- a classic potato salad recipe, adapted from the Big Book of Backyard Cooking.
Old-Fashioned Potato Salad
Ingredients:
Approximately 2 pounds of potatoes, the above salad used 3 large baking potatoes
4 large, hard-boiled eggs
1 3/4 cup chopped celery
2/3 cup red onion
1/2 cup of mayo
The juice of half a lemon.
1 1/2 tsp cider vinegar
Approximately 1-2 tsp of mustard -- ball park, dijon, or other tasty varieties.
Kosher salt
A few shakes of cayenne pepper
First, boil diced potatoes, whatever size you want in the salad. When they're tender, drain. I often make them a little more tender to make the mix a bit more creamy rather than crunchy. Let the potatoes cool.
Mash up the eggs in a bowl, and then mix with the celery and onion. Once that is well mixed, add the mayo, juice, vinegar, mustard, salt, and cayenne.
Add this mixture to the potatoes when cool, and mix well. Season to taste and enjoy!
