AUSTRALIAN STYLE POTATO SALAD
This is a recipe that I found on the inmamaskitchen website, posted by Margaret Walker, which I am posting here for the Zaar World Tour event. It appealed to me because it is very similar to the potato salad recipe that my mom made for our summertime picnics and potluck gatherings. There is a note at the berginning of the instructions that states there are many varieties of deli-style mustards, and it is best that you not use a smooth mustard for this recipe, but rather you should use a mustard that has a trace of seed still in it.

Tips:
- For classic Australian potato salad, use waxy potatoes like Desiree or Kipfler; they hold their shape well when cooked and won't fall apart in the salad.
- Boil potatoes until just tender; overcooked potatoes will become mushy.
- Add diced celery and onion for extra flavor and crunch.
- Use mayonnaise, sour cream, or a combination of both as the base of the dressing. For a lighter option, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
- Season the dressing with mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Add chopped parsley, chives, or dill for a fresh herb flavor.
- Serve potato salad warm or cold. If serving cold, chill for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to meld.
Conclusion:
Australian-style potato salad is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy dressing, tender potatoes, and fresh herbs, it is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. Experiment with different variations to find your favorite potato salad recipe.
