Lenas Potato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Put 2 pounds chopped red-skinned potatoes in a pot, cover with water by 2 inches and add salt. Bring to a boil and simmer until tender. Transfer the potatoes to a bowl using a slotted spoon; sprinkle with salt and 2 tablespoons cider vinegar. Boil 10 ounces frozen peas in the same pot until just tender. Drain, rinse and add to the potatoes. Whisk 3/4 cup each mayonnaise and sour cream, and 1/2 cup each chopped chives and dill. Toss with the potatoes and peas; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Boil, peel and cube 2 pounds russet potatoes; toss with 2 tablespoons cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix 2 cups mayonnaise, 2 chopped scallions, 1 chopped celery stalk, 1 tablespoon each dijon mustard and vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, and salt. Toss with the potatoes.

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes and place in water to cover. Bring to a boil and then cover the pan and lower heat to simmer for about 25 - 30 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender but not falling apart to the touch (but a little overcooked is better than having an uncooked spot in the middles). You can cool the potatoes some by putting them in cold water for about a minute or two.
• When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into cubes or chunks or quarter slices and put them in a bowl.
• Sprinkle vinegar over potatoes.
• Dice up to of the eggs and add. Slice the third and reserve to make decoration for the top of the salad.
• Add onions, seasonings and the mayonnaise and stir until well incorporated.
• Decorate top of salad with reserved eggs.
• Chill to blend all flavors, but also tastes good slightly warm right after you make it!

Steps:

• Cook potatoes in boiling water to cover 40 minutes or until tender; drain and cool.
• Peel potatoes and cut into 1 inch pieces.
• Chop egg whites.
• In a large bowl, stir together potato, egg whites, 1/2 t. salt and green onions.
• Using a fork, mash the yolks in a small bowl; add in remaining 1/2 t. salt, mayo, pickle relish, mustard, pepper, and celery seed; stirring until well blended.
• Gently stir yolk mixture into potato mixture; adjust seasoning to taste with salt and pepper.
• Cover and chill 2 hours (it is even better if you can chill this overnight and serve the next day).

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan with enough cold water to cover. Bring water to a boil, and immediately remove from heat. Cover pan, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool, and peel. Do not chop.
• In a pot with enough water to cover, boil the potatoes 15 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, and allow to remain in the hot water about 10 minutes. Drain, and cool.
• Place the eggs and potatoes in a large bowl. By hand, mix in the olives, mayonnaise, and mustard, and mash the eggs and potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, and refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• Boil peeled potatoes in salted water until done. Cool to room temperature.
• Place diced potatoes in large bowl.
• Mix mayonnaise, cider vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt, garlic powder, and pepper in another bowl.
• Add to potatoes.
• Add celery and onions and mix well.
• Stir in eggs.
• Sprinkle a little paprika on top.

Steps:

• Combine the first 5 ingredients.
• Stir in remaining ingredients.
• Cover& chill.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes, and boil until just done, about 20 minutes. (Just until your fork can be inserted all the way through the potato. You don't want them mushy).
• Drain well and let cool, then dice or slice potatoes. (I like a small dice, about 1/2"x1/2"). The potatoes will cut nicely once chilled and won't fall apart.
• Mix other ingredients, and add to chilled potatoes. Let set in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving for flavors to meld.
• Serve chilled.
