Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 pounds white thin skin potatoes, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons white vinegar or cider vinegar
1 (6-ounce) jar, sliced pimento, drained and chopped
1 cup frozen sweet peas
1 small white onion, peeled and left whole
1/2 cup mayonnaise or reduced fat mayonnaise or, just enough to bind salad
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Boil potatoes in salted water for 12 minutes, until fork tender. Drain and return potatoes to hot pot to dry them. Sprinkle potatoes with vinegar. Transfer potatoes to a bowl and let them cool.
  • When potatoes have cooled, add pimento and peas to the bowl. Using a hand held grater, grate the small white onion over the potatoes. The onion juice is what makes this salad so good. Add 1/2 cup of mayonnaise dressing to the bowl, or to your liking, to bind.
  • Season potato salad with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to plastic serving wear and pack up for your picnic. Keep this salad in your cooler with beverages or chill until ready to travel.

I'm not a big fan of pimentos, so I omitted them from this recipe. It was still very good.

This potato salad is a classic for a reason! It's creamy, tangy, and packed with flavor. The pimentos and peas add a nice pop of color and sweetness. I also love that it's make-ahead, so I can enjoy it all week long.
