NEW YORK DELI POTATO SALAD
I have only found my favorite potato salad in delicatessens in New York City and Long Island and in some Italian and Jewish delis elsewhere. After much searching, a friend on Long Island sent me this recipe which comes as close to perfection as any I've tried. The recipe may be cut down as the quantities are for a party.

NEW YORK DELI STYLE POTATO SALAD
When I moved down South, after living in New York for 35 years, I could no longer find a "deli" style potato salad I liked. I like a simple vinegar based salad with just a small amount of finely diced onion. Common in most Deli's on Long Island, NY. I have tweaked a few recipe's I found on recipezaar and below seems to be the best. I'm famous for cooking my potatos too long, so cook them till you think they're done! I like to use a new potato and tried it with those dutch baby yellow potatos last night. Yummy!

Steps:
- Place the potatoes in a big pot of water. Turn up the heat to high! Cook them to perfection in boiling water. Don't over cook (they will be too mushy). Don't under cook. I can't give you an exact time but start checking after 20 minutes. You just need to use your fork and your cooking instincts. Peeling: You can peel them before boiling but it's easier to pull off the skins after cooking. Tip : Let them cool, first! After cooking, drain well and let them cool down. After a spell, chill in the fridge until they are cold. During the cooling off period grate ½ cup of carrots and ¼ cup of minced curly parsley. Take the cool potatoes and slice them thin. (About a quarter of an inch or so) Place sliced potatoes in a giant mixing bowl and add the mayo, white vinegar, sugar, salt, carrots and parley too. Gently mix it up with a big 'ole spoon. Adjust to taste. Chill, may be eaten it within 3 days preparing.
Tips:
- Use Yukon Gold Potatoes: Yukon Gold potatoes are the best choice for potato salad. They have a firm texture and hold their shape well when cooked. They also have a slightly sweet flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients in the salad.
- Cook the Potatoes Properly: The potatoes should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and fall apart in the salad.
- Use a Good Quality Mayonnaise: The mayonnaise is one of the most important ingredients in potato salad. Use a good quality mayonnaise that is made with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
- Add Some Acidity: A little bit of acidity, such as lemon juice or vinegar, will help to brighten up the flavor of the salad. It will also help to prevent the potatoes from turning brown.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, or chives, will add a lot of flavor to the salad. Add them just before serving for the best flavor.
