Recipe by Mom
It’s been more years than I’ll admit since I helped my mom
make potato salad. And yet, I’ve never made it at all since I left home decades
ago—until now. The secret of Mom’s potato salad is that the potatoes themselves
are highly flavored. This eliminates the need to flavor-compensate with
seasonings like mustard, dill seed, and pickle relish. The potatoes themselves are the stars of the
salad, complimented by a large quantity of eggs, a variety of finely chopped
crunchy veggies, and of course mayo.
