Potato Salad by Syd

"Everyone has theiry own recipe or at least a favorite potato salad, but for some mysterious reason I seem to gravitate toward my own version! And, I'm EXTREMELY partial to the Del Monte brand of pickle relish -- nothing else works for me! Preparation time includes neither time needed to steam potatoes nor time to chill finished salad."

  1. Nice potato salad!!! I made this using 6 medium sized red potatoes (usually smaller than Idaho/russet potatoes). I made this as written except we didn't add the sweet relish as we aren't fans of that in our potato salad. This made more than enough dressing for the 6 potatoes, so next time I would increase the # of potatoes or scale back on the dressing. I enjoyed the green onion flavor verses a standard diced onion. DH ate it as is (I tasted it this way first) but I like my dressing to be tangy, so I added a couple more squirts of mustard to mine. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for Zaar Stars Game.
     
  2. Great salad ! I stirred through a little bit of rocket and this made a lovely meal on a hot summer's night. DD especially loved the addition of mustard in the dressing. Made for Everyday is a Holiday tag.
     
  3. Very nice potato salad! The lemon pepper was a nice addition, good with the relish and mustard in the dressing. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
     
  4. Lovely potato salad, loved the lemon pepper, and I followed this exactly, except used let sweet pickle relish, as my spoon was hitting the bottom of the jar. This is a perfect potato salad, especially for food gatherings, and it would terrific for a baby shower, tea-party, etc....its' light and not heavy. Enjoyed this so much, will make it again. Made for Holiday Tag Game 2011
     
  5. This is a great version of a classic. The only change I made, was to cut the sweet relish in half. I was afraid it might be too sweet for our tastes. Turned out perfect. I loved the idea of adding lemon pepper, but may increase the amount next time. Thanks Syd for a delightful addition to our supper, which also included recipe #358169. Made for the Auzzie/NZ Recipe Swap #38.

  1. We loved the flavour of this potato salad. The mustard gives it a nice bit of colour. I boiled the potatoes rather than steaming and used chopped sweet sandwich pickles instead of relish. DH wants me to make this again so it's a winner in this household. Made for Holiday Tag.
     
  2. This is similar to my recipe, but I use chopped dill pickles instead of sweet pickle relish and substitute lemon juice (to taste) instead of vinegar.
