I mentioned on this list several times that potato salad is one of
weaknesses and there has been a great deal of suggestions for the
salad....but I found in Wednesday's Washington Post and interesting article
in the Food Section written by Marla Paul entitled "She Sure Can Make
Potato Salad." She writes: There is one item my mother prepares
spectacularly well, one item for which she is lengendary. I begin dreaming
of it in the spring and beg for it every summer. It is potato salad. My
mother's is to die for. Over the past four decades our family has
experienced its share of upheaval (sic)but no mater what has happened in
the prior year, my mother's brimming crockery bowl sits in its honorary
spot on the buffet, it is constant and comnforting...(end of quote)
Boil the potatoes until you can pierce them easily with a fork, then drain
completely and cool, cut into eights.(Don't cool them in the water or
they'll get mushy!") In a large bowl gently mix with eggs, celery,
pimento.Season with salt, pepper, onion powder to taste. In a separate
bowl, blend the mustard,Miracle Whip. Gently blend into the salad. Sprinkle
with paprika, cover tightly, refirgerate until serving.
