OUR FAMILY'S PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH POTATO SALAD
This is truly a family tradition during the summer months. My mom makes it the best - I don't care how many times we follow the recipe - her's always tastes best - must be her touch of love that adds to the flavor. (Note: the cooking time includes boiling the potatoes and making the dressing)

- Cook potatoes in boiling water until just tender -- do not overcook.
