Ingredients
- 6 potatoes
- 2 eggs
- OR
- 8-9 potates
- 3 eggs
- 2 stalks celery
- 1 small onion or 1/2 onion grated
- small splat vinegar
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- salt
- pepper
- paprika
Directions
Cook potatoes with skins on ahead of time and cool. Put in large pan with water to cover and fork them to see if they are cook or cook them in the pressure cooker. Peel. Dice. Put in a large bowl and add hard boiled eggs which are moderately finely chopped. Cook ahead - simmer about 10 minutes and plunge into cold running water so they peel easily. Add the finely chopped celery and the onion - it really tastes better if it is finely grated so you don't get pieces of raw onion to chew . When it is almost a slurry, it mixes throughout the salad and just gives flavor without bite. Add the vinegar to taste and the mayonnaise and the salt, pepper and paprika. Don't you DARE spoil this potato salad by using Salad Dressing, a lowly, fake, form of mayonnaise if there ever was one. And don't sneak any sugar in either! If you do make this with salad dressing, don't ever say you got this recipe from me!
