Classic Mustard Potato Salad


Ingredients


8 cups russet potatoes, cooked, peeled, then diced (about 10 -12 medium potatoes)


6 eggs, hard boiled and finely crumbled


2 cups sweet onions, very finely diced


1 cup celery, peeled and very finely diced


3/4 cup dill pickles, very finely diced


1 1/2 cups mayonnaise (I prefer Miracle Whip, but mayo works well, too)


2 tablespoons mustard, the regular yellow type


1/4 cup pickle juice


1/4 cup cream (I use half and half)


1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt


1/2 teaspoon white pepper


2 tablespoons sugar


Directions


1Boil potatoes in the peel with the whole eggs.


2Remove the eggs after 10 minutes of boiling, and remove and drain the potatoes when just fork tender.


3Let eggs and potatoes cool to room temperature.


4Peel all and refrigerate whole potatoes and eggs until cold.


5The potatoes will dice and hold up better when cold.


6Dice the potatoes into 1/4- 3/8'; dice.


7Place into a very large container with a lid.


8(I have a 4 1/2 qrt glass bowl-shaped casserole with lid that's perfect.) Crumble the eggs (I do this by squishing them in my hand) and add to the container with the diced potatoes.


9Very finely (like the size of dill relish pieces) chop the onion, celery and pickles.


10Add to the potatoes and eggs.


11Gently stir to mix the ingredients evenly.


12In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, dill pickle juice, cream, salt, pepper and sugar.


13Whisk until creamy.


14Pour over potato mixture.


15Gently stir until the dry particles are coated with the creamy mixture.


16Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours.


176- 8 hours is even better.


18If you like color you can sprinkle some sweet paprika over the top.
