I have lived my whole life wanting to eat potato salad. But unfortunately for me, my mother and probably every one else in the world has to put those gross hard boiled eggs in them. So the other day, I thought..."I am making my own potato salad!" I first started thinking about great flavors to mix instead of just straight mayo and salt and pepper. To my luck, Ina Garten was making a mustard and dill potato salad for a picnic. So afterwards, I wanted to make my own sauce recipe. What was born, is what I have been eating all week long. I have had to make another batch. It is so unbelievably delicious. I could just eat this all day long. I have used some of Ina's techniques but created my own recipe. You start out by boiling red potatoes, whole in salted water. The trick then is to drain them just before they are completely tender and cover them with a lid or towel to steam until fully cooked. You then mince some celery and red onions. The final thing to do is to make the sauce. The sauce consists of: mayo, sour cream, good Dijon or brown mustard, dill, celery seeds, sugar, apple cider vinegar, milk. It is a good idea to add a little bit of the dressing while the potatoes are still warm. Then add the rest later. I guarantee once you have potato salad this way, you will never think of adding eggs to it again! Bon Appetit!
