~ NOTHING FANCY POTATO SALAD ~

This is the potato salad my husband was raised on, and he refuses to eat any other. I was used to sugar and vinegar in my dressings. This recipe is plain and simple all the way, it has actually grown on me over the years and it's one of my favorites too. Recipe is my MIL - tweaked by me as I add more egg. Enjoy!

CRUSHED BABY POTATOES WITH SARDINES, CELERY AND DILL

Boiled potatoes are great to keep on hand for out-of-hand snacking and as a quick addition to things like a skillet full of chicken fat or a midday lunch salad, but also excellent as a foil for rich, fatty, tinned fish. In this recipe from "Nothing Fancy" (Clarkson Potter, 2019), the potatoes are crushed because it allows the chunkiness (which lends texture) to coexist with the more broken-up pieces (which lends creaminess). Plus, those exposed craggy edges are here for maximum lemony, scalliony, salty dressing absorption.

Crushed Baby Potatoes With Sardines, Celery and Dill image

Steps:

  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until they're completely tender, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on size of the potato. Drain and let sit about 10 minutes or so, until they're cool enough to crush with your hands or another implement.
  • Meanwhile, combine the olive oil, 1/4 cup dill, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, lemon zest and half the scallions in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper and more lemon juice to taste, as needed.
  • Scatter the potatoes and celery on a large serving platter or in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Spoon the olive oil mixture over.
  • Top with the celery leaves, remaining scallions, more dill and more black pepper. Serve with sardines or anchovies alongside or scattered over the top, if desired.

1 pound potatoes, preferably small, waxy potatoes, such as golden creamer or fingerling
Kosher salt
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh dill or parsley, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice or white wine vinegar, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
4 scallions or spring onions, white and green parts, or 1 bunch chives, thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
4 celery stalks, thinly sliced on a bias
1 cup celery leaves or tender leaves and stems of fresh parsley
1 (4-ounce) tin sardines, (2-ounce) tin anchovy fillets or other fish, torn or cut into bite-size pieces

REALLY GOOD, SIMPLE, FRESH POTATO SALAD- NO MUSTARD- NO RELISH

This recipe was given to me by an elderly woman who had brought lunch to another elderly woman that I was taking care of. I don't know know the origin of this type of potato salad, and tried to search Zaar to make sure I wasn't duplicating, but admit that I did not search all 1200 potato salad recipes. I have never tasted a potato salad that was so good, so I got the recipe from her. The amounts are approximate as she just told me the ingredients, and I eyeball it, of course it also depends on how much you want to make, so adapt it accordingly. She did insist however that you have to use Hellmann's mayo. My husband, who Never eats potato salad eats and actually enjoys it. It has a nice mellow flavor and texture with-out the typical relish and mustard, I'm sure all of the eggs contribute to that. I took it to a church potluck and got raves about it. It is definitely not low fat, not sure how it would adapt. Another example that sometimes simple IS better. Hope you enjoy!

Really Good, Simple, Fresh Potato Salad- No Mustard- No Relish image

Steps:

  • Peel and dice potatoes, Boil in salted water until tender.
  • Hard boil eggs, peel, chop. (obviously lol).
  • Finely chop onion.
  • *1-2 ribs of finely diced celery is nice, but was not in the original recipe.
  • A dash of garlic powder or garlic salt is nice too.
  • Judge the amount of Mayo to your taste and # of potatoes, but do add it until it is nice and creamy.
  • Mix all ingredients together when warm, serve fresh with-out chilling, if you can, it is good chilled too, but particularly creamy when warm-to room temperature.
  • It is also best to use the hardboiled eggs right after cooking, it's ok if they are slightly cooled from peeling, but best in this, if they are freshly cooked.
  • Most of the prep time is attributed to the peeling and chopping of the potatoes.
  • *Of course, because of the Mayo you won't want to leave it out too long.
  • I have also heard (unknown it it's true, but I never take the chance) not to serve anything that has Mayo in it, with Sterling Silver servers.
