Best 8 Mrs Ms Good Eatin Potato Salad Recipes

MY MOM'S GOOD OLD POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pan of water and boil over medium-low heat until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain the potatoes, and place in the refrigerator to cool.
• Place the eggs in a saucepan of cold water over medium heat, and bring to a full boil. Turn off the heat, cover the pan, and allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for about 15 minutes. Cool the eggs thoroughly under cold running water and shell them. Chop the cooled eggs and place them in a large salad bowl.
• Stir the onion, sweet pickles, and mayonnaise into the eggs, and let the mixture chill in the refrigerator at least l/2 hour to blend the flavors. Mix in the chilled chopped potatoes, and refrigerate for at least 1/2 hour. Serve cold.

MRS. ROCKEY'S SECRET POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes unpeeled. When they are just fork tender (not too soft!), peel and slice them (or, leave them unpeeled if you wish) while they are still fairly hot. Place them in a large mixing bowl and set aside, covered (so they'll stay warm while you make the dressing, etc.).
• In a small pan, bring the vinegar to the boiling point.
• In a mixing bowl, SLOWLY whisk the vinegar into the beaten eggs. Don't pour the hot vinegar in too fast or the eggs will scramble a bit.
• In a double boiler, over medium heat, pour in the egg-vinegar mix and whisk until the blend thickens some, then whisk in the butter and allow to cook for one minute.
• Next, stir in the cream (pre-warmed to about 100 degrees F.), TWO tablespoons of the parsley, the onion, and the seasonings.
• When the mix is well-blended, pour it over the sliced potatoes and carefully mix the dressing with the potatoes -- I use a big spatula for this.
• Allow to cool a bit and sprinkle remaining parsley over the top. Refrigerate and serve cold.

MOTHER'S POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Allow to cool, peel, and cut into cubes.
• Place the eggs into a saucepan in a single layer and fill with water to cover the eggs by 1 inch. Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, remove from the heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Pour out the hot water, then cool the eggs under cold running water in the sink. Peel and slice once cold. Reserve 1 attractive slice of egg for garnish.

Pour the mayonnaise dressing over the salad, and gently toss gain to coat the ingredients with dressing. Season to taste with salt, and top the salad with slices of green pepper and reserved egg slice in the center for garnish. Chill until ready to serve.

MRS. M'S "GOOD EATIN' " POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Boil potatoes with the skins still on until they're cooked but still firm. (For medium potatoes, this will take about 12 minutes from start of boil.) When the potatoes are done, drain them well, and let them sit in the pot for a few minutes until the crackling sound stops. Cool and peel the potatoes. Cut into chunks. While waiting for the potatoes to cool, prepare the remaining ingredients and combine all in a large bowl except the paprika and parsley. Add the potatoes to the large bowl. Mix with remaining ingredients except garnish. Chill the combined potato salad. Add garnish when ready to serve.
