CALIFORNIA POTATO SALAD



California Potato Salad image

Since my partner is very picky about what he likes in his potato salad, I have made my own version of home-made PS and it's always a hit with friends and family. Not for the calorie faint but it's real, real good! Ingredient quantities are variable to taste. I think it's the garlic that takes it to the next level. Try it! For best flavor allow it to set overnight in the fridge. Using a mix of yellow, white, and red potatoes is really the best.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of steak. A good steak for this salad is one that is tender and flavorful, such as a rib eye, strip steak, or flank steak.
  • Cook the steak properly. The steak should be cooked to your desired doneness, but it should not be overcooked. Otherwise, it will become tough and chewy.
  • Use high-quality potatoes. The potatoes should be firm and waxy, such as Yukon Gold or red potatoes.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are tender. The potatoes should be cooked until they are easily pierced with a fork, but they should not be mushy.
  • Let the potatoes cool before slicing them. This will help to prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. In addition to potatoes, you can add other vegetables to the salad, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and bell peppers.
  • Use a flavorful dressing. The dressing should be flavorful and complement the steak and potatoes. A good dressing for this salad is a vinaigrette made with olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and herbs.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best served immediately after it is made. Otherwise, the potatoes will start to soak up the dressing and become soggy.

Conclusion:

California potato and steak salad is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for a summer meal. It is made with tender steak, boiled potatoes, a variety of vegetables, and a flavorful dressing. This salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
