WORLD’S BEST POTATO SALAD

WORLD’S BEST POTATO SALAD

“This is a real creamy potato salad made with homemade dressing”


6 medium potatoes
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1 tsp. salt
6 hard-cooked eggs, diced
1 tsp. cornstarch
salt to taste
½ vinegar
1 (5-oz.) can evaporated milk
1 tsp. prepared yellow mustard
¼ cup butter
1 cup mayonnaise


1. Place the potatoes into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 20 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain. Cool, peel and diced. Transfer to a large bowl, and toss with the onion, celery, 1-tsp. salt, and hard-cooked eggs.

2. While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together 2 eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan. Stir in vinegar, milk and mustard. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in butter. Refrigerate until cool, then stir in the mayonnaise.

3. Stir dressing into the bowl of potato salad gently until evenly coated. Chill several hours or overnight before serving for best flavor.

Yield: 6 servings.
