HOT SMOOTH MUSTARD POTATO SALAD (LIKE MOM MADE)



Hot Smooth Mustard Potato Salad (Like Mom Made) image

I searched and didn't find the kind of potato salad I grew up on. My Mother always made mustard potato salad with the potatoes mashed and served warm. My family and I have carried this tradition on because it's what we like, I guess it just depends on what you grew up on!! The key to this recipe is making sure to keep the potatoes pretty dry when mashing because of adding the other liquids. This recipe will serve a lot..seems I just can't cook anything in small portions but I don't seem to have any trouble getting rid of it!!

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 -10 russet potatoes (according to size)
5 -6 hard-boiled eggs
1 cup hamburger dills
1 onion
1/4 cup pickle juice
1 teaspoon vinegar
2 tablespoons mustard
1/4 cup Miracle Whip
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon butter
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)

Steps:

  • Dice potatoes and cook until tender with skin on or off. Drain well. Mash potatoes with butter, milk, salt and pepper. Add only enough of the milk to keep potatoes stiff. Boil eggs and let cool. I boil mine while the potatoes are also boiling. When eggs are cool dice all but one of the eggs, cut the remaining one in half longways. I chop the pickles and onion while potatoes and eggs are cooking, I chop mine pretty fine. Add chopped onion and pickle to hot potato mixture. Add mustard, miracle whip,vinegar and just enough pickle juice to desired texture. Stir until well mixed.
  • After potato salad is finished, put in a pretty bowl, place 1/2 of the yolk in the center of dish on top of the salad. Cut long narrow strips out of the white, place the strips next to the yolk so it looks like a sunburst. Sprinkle the paprika on top and serve hot,warm, or cold.

Tips:

  • Use the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, like Russets, when boiled. This will prevent them from becoming mushy in the salad.
  • Boil the potatoes until tender: You want the potatoes to be cooked through but not overcooked. Overcooked potatoes will fall apart easily and make the salad mushy.
  • Cool the potatoes completely: Before adding the potatoes to the salad, let them cool completely. This will help prevent the salad from becoming warm and soggy.
  • Use a light hand with the mayonnaise: Mustard-style potato salad should be creamy but not overly mayonnaise. Add the mayonnaise a little at a time, stirring until the potatoes are evenly coated.
  • Add some chopped vegetables: To add flavor and texture to the salad, add some chopped vegetables, such as celery, onion, or pickles. You can also add chopped hard-boiled eggs.
  • Season the salad to taste: Be sure to season the salad with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a little bit of sugar to balance out the acidity of the vinegar.

Conclusion:

Mom's Mustard-Style Potato Salad is a classic summer side dish that is always a hit at potlucks and picnics. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
