SAUERKRAUT SALAD
Great-Grandma Maida Dixon made this salad for family gatherings. I think of her every time I make. It's sooo good. It needs to be placed in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld. It really is worth the wait.

A sweet out-of-the-ordinary dressing makes this macaroni salad special. My aunt gave me the recipe and it has become one of my favorites. I occasionally leave out the green pepper if I know that people don't like it, and it still tastes great. -Idalee Scholz, Cocoa Beach, Florida

SUMMERTIME SLAW
As a change from mayonnaise-laden slaw, I created this refreshing alternative. It uses many of the garden vegetables I grow, so it's also economical. I serve it at our family reunion each Fourth of July, and it's always a big hit at get-togethers. -Sharon Payne, Mayfield, Kentucky

CLASSIC POTATO SALAD
The recipe for this Southern classic came from the chef Millie Peartree's mother, Millie Bell. The sweet relish melds with the creamy potatoes for a deep, balanced flavor. Onion powder adds savory notes without the texture of diced onion, which could overpower the dish. Make sure that your eggs are rinsed thoroughly, so no pieces of shell remain, and that your potatoes are uniformly cut in roughly 1-inch cubes so they all finish cooking at the same time. (Millie Bell used her thumb as a measure.) And, most important of all, don't overcook the potatoes: You want potato salad, not mashed potatoes.

Steps:
- Set the potatoes in a large pot; add 1 tablespoon salt and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Set over high heat and cook just until fork-tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. (You still want the potatoes to still have some shape to avoid turning the dish into mashed potatoes.) Drain potatoes, and set them aside to cool.
- As potatoes cool, make the dressing: To a large bowl, add mayonnaise, relish, mustard and granulated onion; whisk to combine.
- Add the potatoes to the dressing, along with the diced hard-boiled eggs, and celery, if using; stir gently to combine. Taste and season with salt and black pepper as needed.
- Chill for at least 2 hours, and up to overnight. Serve cold. Finish with a sprinkle of paprika. Potato salad will keep for 4 days in an airtight container.
Tips:
- For a sweeter slaw, use more sugar or honey in the dressing.
- For a tangier slaw, use more vinegar in the dressing.
- For a spicier slaw, add some cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the dressing.
- If you don't have sweet pickle relish, you can use dill pickle relish instead.
- For a healthier slaw, use a light mayonnaise or Greek yogurt in the dressing.
- Serve the slaw immediately, or chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving for a more flavorful salad.
Conclusion:
Sweet relish slaw is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it sweet, tangy, or spicy, this slaw is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a side dish that is both delicious and healthy, give sweet relish slaw a try.
