Grandma's Famous Potato Salad
"My grandmother's famous P.S. The trick is to use more sour cream than mayo--gives a super creamy texture, not like supermarket deli potato salad. I add extra parsley and a splash of lemon juice, and I leave out the pimentos. Great to bring to BBQs."

This is a great recipe, very creamy. I had rave reviews when I first served it. The only things I have changed which have definitely improved the taste is I use honey dijon mustard, Italian parsley & add hard boiled eggs to mine. -
Very good, but too tart. I would cut the relish back a little. Also left out the pimiento, loved the flavor of the sour cream, it really made it creamy, I would make it again, but with half the relish. -
Great recipe! The sour cream really adds a special flavor to it. I left out the pimientos, but added some chopped red bell pepper for color, as well as little green peas. In my family it's not potato salad unless it's got peas!
