Grandma’s Potato Salad Recipe

This time of year I have to make potato salad.  It is one of those seasonal menu items that brings me back to my childhood. Sometimes it’s the simplest recipes that taste the best.  My grandma made the best potato salad I have ever had.  This is as close as I can come to her recipe, you add the love.potato salad 005

3  lbs  New Potato

1 Medium Onion minced

2 Celery Stalks diced

4 Eggs

1 1/2 Cup Mayonnaise

1 1/2 Tablespoon Spicy Brown Mustard

1 1/2 Teaspoon Dill

In a large pot place whole potatoes with eggs (in the shell) on top.  I buy new potatoes so I don’t need to peel the potatoes. Cover with cold water.  Heat on high until a vigorous boil.  Reduce heat to medium. Cook until a fork can easily go through the largest of the potatoes. Drain. Cool.  Once the potatoes are cool. Cut into bit size pieces.  Add to a large mixing bowl   Remove the eggs from their shells. Dice the egg add to the potatoes.  Add onion and celery and fold to incorporate.  In a medium size bowl add mayonaise, mustard and dill.  Mix well.  Add mayo mixture to potato mixture. Chill. Serve.
