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.

- Parboil the potatoes: Parboiling the potatoes before slicing them helps to prevent them from sticking together and makes them more tender.
- Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what really makes the potato salad, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, vinegar, and herbs and spices to create a dressing that's both flavorful and tangy.
- Add some crunch: Chopped celery, onion, and pickles add crunch and texture to the potato salad.
- Chill the potato salad: Before serving, chill the potato salad for at least an hour so that the flavors have a chance to meld.
