GRANDMA DREW'S POTATO SALAD DRESSING
Before commercial mayonnaise was available, my Grandmother used this sauce to make her cherished Potato Salad. It is a very-low fat alternative to mayonnaise and tastes better than light mayo, too! Great for tuna, macaroni, or chicken salad, but you'll probably want to add a little mayo, also.

Tips:
- Use a variety of potatoes. Grandma's recipe calls for red potatoes, but she also said you could use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes. Each type of potato has a slightly different flavor and texture, so feel free to experiment until you find your favorite combination.
- Don't overcook the potatoes. Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and fall apart. Instead, cook them just until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Let the vinegar mixture cool completely. This will help the flavors to meld together and prevent the vinegar from overpowering the other ingredients.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better your potato salad will taste.
- Make your potato salad ahead of time. Potato salad is even better the next day, so it's perfect for parties and potlucks.
Conclusion:
Grandma Drew's potato salad is a classic for a reason. It's simple to make, versatile, and delicious. With the right ingredients and a little bit of care, you can create a potato salad that will please everyone at your table.
