SALMON & CILANTRO POTATO SALAD
DH & I were the lucky recipients of a lrg amt of fresh salmon recently. 18 lbs went to be smoked & the rest is in our freezer, so I've been on a mission to expand my salmon horizons. The Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute has been my best source & they didn't disappoint me w/this truly special potato salad that ranks right behind "my mama's best" for me. They described it as a side-dish, but I've used it more as a hearty 1-dish salad meal & just served it w/crusty bread & a variety of veggie/salad items at its side (sliced tomato & cucumber, olives, hard-boiled eggs, etc). Times were estimated & do not include time spent cooking the potatoes. This is a must try! Enjoy! (Edited to Add: To halve this recipe, use 1/2 can salmon & the rest of the ingredients halve easily. Then w/the unused canned salmon, make salmon patties to accompany the salad.)

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, wild-caught Alaskan salmon. If frozen salmon is all that is available, thaw it completely before using.

- Use high-quality mayonnaise for the potato salad. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the dish.
- Add the potatoes to the mayonnaise mixture while they are still warm. This will help the mayonnaise to coat the potatoes evenly.
- Season the potato salad to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried dill.
- Serve the potato salad immediately, or chill it for later. It can be enjoyed warm or cold.
