    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: Deonia

    List of Ingredients




    I like my Bigmother's recipe for making potato salad that uses boiled dressing. I like the "smap" it gives t it. Can't stand it bland.
    It's easy to make and i'll try to give you proportions for the 30 you're making it for. But the dressing you sill have to make 3 times lol.
    Dressing is:
    2 T. cider vinegar
    2 jumbo eggs
    cook till thick, then add:
    1 1/2 Tablespoons sugar to thin
    You might be ablr to make this by tripling everything, but i would make it three times lol Just so the eggs won't scorch. Then I add onion powder and celeryseed to mine. but you can add raw onions and omit the celery seed if you want. That's just my addition to what Bigmother did.

    Recipe



    8-10 lbs of potatoes sounds about right. boiled, peeled and diced
    4-6 hardboiled eggs, diced
    3/4 cup sweet relish
    1/2 cup minced onion ( if using raw)
    1 1/2 cup diced celery
    salt and pepper to taste
    Mix all together with dressing and add enough mayo or salad dressing to make it stirable. Wish i could give you better instructions on ammount jof mayo to use but i've never made this for more than 6-8 people
    I think this might be called "german potato salad" which is sometimes served hot, but i like mine chilled. Hope you like this, everyone who tastes this loves it and says it's just like their mother made.
