SLICED POTATO SALAD
I got this from the Penzey's spice catalog. My family just loved it. Note: It calls for English Prime Rib Rub, which is a spice blend Penzeys makes. I mixed together equal parts ground celery seed, garlic powder, onion powder and sugar. Then measured out the 1-1/2 teaspoons of this mixture to replace the prime rib rub. It tasted great! If you do have this mix from Penzeys, omit the salt and pepper as the mix already contains it.

Steps:
- 1. In a large bowl, add herbs, salt, pepper, and fajita seasoning to the olive oil. Mix in mayo and mustard, then add the milk to reduce the thickness. Refrigerate. 2. Clean and slice unpeeled potatoes into disks. (Ideal thickness is ~1/8 inch / ~3 mm; a mandolin is helpful.) 3. Boil potato slices until *just* cooked. Drain very carefully and *gently* add cool water (so as not to break potatoes) to stop the cooking, then drain again. 4. Manually coat each potato slice with a little sauce (to avoid breaking them) and transfer them to a serving dish as you do so. Refrigerate and serve.
Tips:
- To save time, use a mandoline or food processor to slice the potatoes.
- If you don't have mayonnaise, you can make your own by whisking together 1 egg yolk, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon white vinegar, and 1 cup vegetable oil until thick and creamy.
- For a tangy twist, add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the mayonnaise.
- If you like your potato salad with a little crunch, add some chopped celery or red onion.
- For a creamy potato salad, add some sour cream or yogurt to the mayonnaise.
- If you're making the potato salad ahead of time, let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Garnish the potato salad with chopped fresh parsley or chives.
