Amish Potato Salad from Cook's Country (America's Test Kitchen) image

You can substitute an equal amount of celery salt for the celery seed, but if you do, eliminate the (unflavored) salt from the dressing. Make sure to use sturdy Yukon Golds here, fluffy russets will fall apart in the salad.

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch chunks
salt and pepper
1/3 cup cider vinegar (see note)
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
4 large hard-cooked eggs, peeled
1/2 teaspoon celery seed (see note)
3/4 cup sour cream
1 celery rib, chopped fine

Steps:

  • COOK POTATOES Bring potatoes, 1 tablespoon salt, and enough water to cover by 1 inch to boil in large pot over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes are just tender, about 10 minutes.
  • PREPARE DRESSING While potatoes simmer, microwave vinegar and sugar in small bowl until sugar dissolves, about 30 seconds. Process vinegar mixture, mustard, 1 hard-cooked egg yolk (reserve white), celery seed, and ½ teaspoon salt in food processor until smooth. Transfer to medium bowl.
  • SEASON POTATOES Drain potatoes thoroughly, then transfer to large bowl. Drizzle 2 tablespoons dressing over hot potatoes and, using rubber spatula, gently toss until evenly coated. Refrigerate until cooled, at least 30 -minutes, stirring gently once to redistribute dressing.
  • ASSEMBLE Whisk sour cream into remaining dressing. Add remaining hard-cooked eggs and egg white to dressing and, using potato masher, mash until only small pieces remain. Add dressing and celery to cooled potatoes. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 -minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve. (Salad can be refrigerated in airtight container for 2 days.).

This potato salad is not worth the effort. It's bland and boring.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my potato salad turned out too dry. I think I needed to add more mayonnaise.

This potato salad is a bit too tangy for my taste. I would reduce the amount of vinegar in the dressing next time.

I'm not a huge fan of celery, so I omitted it from the recipe. The potato salad was still delicious without it.

This Amish potato salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the day before my picnic, and it was even better the next day.

I made a few modifications to the recipe, such as using Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise and adding some chopped bacon. It turned out fantastic!
