The way you cook reminds me of my uncle. He died unexpectedly almost 4 months ago and he was so talented in the kitchen, he took pride in what he did and he was a great host. He had many friends who loved him and his cooking. I know this information is unimportant and irrelevant to the video but it reminded me of him and now I really miss him.
Thanks for the videos, Chef John.
My condolences on the loss of your Mom, Chef John. I didn't know she'd died. May she rest in peace.
This brings back memories of my dad. I'd ask him what gift he wanted for whatever holiday it was, and his answer was always my potato salad. I like to use half mayo, half sour cream. It makes it taste less heavy.
Looks great, but I'd probably slice my potato into larger pieces. I also like some chopped up bacon, and a tablespoon of sweet relish. I also garnish the top with slices of egg, lightly dusted in smoked paprika.
I think publishing a potato salad recipe is like publishing a top 10 best rock and roll songs list. The fun of it is not that everyone will nod and agree, but that everyone will have to put in their 2 cents about what the recipe / list should really contain. Happy potato salad season to you, Chef!
R.I.P. Ms. Pauline... thank you for blessing the world with this magnificent human being we call Chef John!!
It took us three days to make that potato salad...THREE DAYS!!!!!!!!!
mondiialiito YESSSS
mondiialiito why? Better question how was it?
mondiialiito I'm happy this comment was made
why three days?
remember...pinky out!
The classic salads are classic for a reason. Because they are delicious! This is my favorite potato salad. People can keep their bacon, cheese and all that other crap they throw in to "improve" it. I just made classic macaroni salad for the holiday last week. Yum :)
Onions optional? If you're from the Southern United States they're not.
Add dill and pickle relish...perfecto!
I spent most of the video thinking: "This is not nearly enough potato salad."
This looks tasty; what about pickle brine instead of the vinegar?
If you use that do not use the extra salt since pickle rime in mostly salt
This reminds me of your macaroni salad recipe, which is now my favorite thing to take to parties now and everyone always loves it. I'm psyched to try this one too!
I just wanted to say, I really REALLY enjoy watching your videos. Your food not only looks great, but your humor is 👍, not to mention your voice is soothing 😂
Love Paulina. My mom's version was a bit different, but she never changed it. 'Screw the haters', she said, long before anyone else did.
Well, I actually like potato salad with distiguishable slices of potato and a vinegar-oil dressing more... but each his own :D
we make potato salad very often here in Dominican Republic. I love your videos chef John, keep up your amazing job good sir
If you don't like hard boiled eggs in your potato salad, I recommend leaving out the potatoes.
In Indiana, ppl like to add pickles to their potato salad, something my mother (who is from Pennsylvania) finds quite odd. When she first moved here, she took a potato salad to a family gathering with her in laws, and my aunt carried the potato salad to the kitchen and added pickles without asking my mom. When mom asked her why, my aunt said "oh, I just thought you forgot to add them!"
...this is honestly my favorite... valid... tato salad. I'm a heathen and like this as a spread on sandwiches with a crisp dill pickle or in lieu of cole slaw on BBQ! Chef John, why do you identify so well with my Southern, culinary impaired childhood? Your recipes are my mom's recipes, if only she used salt and spices! In short, I luv tato.
I bought a big bag of potatoes and it's growing eyes like crazy. Other foods rot. Potatoes want to see...
In my brain it said, "You are the DJ Khaled of your potato salad." #MissedOpportunity
I want chef John to give me the o-o-o-old tappa tappa
I perfer my potatos not quite this done when I make potato salad. I also use the potatoes with red skin and leave the skin on. However I do think the dressing would be awesome. Will try it next time I make potato salad.
Potato Salad is an interesting food, and one of my favorites in the spring/summer. It's interesting because of all the ways people make it, which are all wrong! haha I kid. My grandma's is simple though: potatoes, eggs, miracle whip or mayo, onion, and season all, salt, and pepper. I love it.
I can honestly say I've never seen this method for cooking potato for potato salad but will give it a go, seems pretty easy.
You are the Plato of your Salad with Potato.
How about grated sweet onion instead of finely diced? Grated onion is one of the "secret ingredients" in "local style" Hawaiian cooking.
I like my potato salad like how I like my CZcams chefs: Big and chunky.
I may try this at some point, but minus the hard boiled eggs. Eggs only belong in a potato salad in the form of mayonnaise.
"But none of that matters to me because it feels right" 😂 lol do your thang
don't forget to give it the ooooooollllllllddddddddd poka poka.
"...paprika, except I used cayenne."
Ah, Chef John... I love you! :-*
just ran to my kitchen to make my own version using leftover baked potatoes we had. turned out really yummy! couldn't really wait for it to chill tho.. (:
Gotta admit I'm not used to seeing a Potato salad without dill or pickles
It is easy to think of potatoes, and fortunately for men who have not much money it is easy to think of them with a certain safety. Potatoes are one of the last things to disappear, in times of war, which is probably why they should not be forgotten in times of peace...
Thank You Chef John! To me...YOUR salad looks...VALID!
this plate would we great and nutritious in Ramadan breakfast >> thanks
But did it take three days to make that potato salad?
Three Days?!
10madbananas haha spongebob reference 😂
Love your recipe it's like my grandmother made. 💖
Idk why this potato salad video was very soothing
A good looking potato salad. I remember potato salad from long ago. My grandmother made it.
I have to say, nothing beats boiled potatoes stirred in a bowl with mayonnaise
Chef John, thank you sooo much for sharing your potato cooking technique! I love the flavour of my mom's potato salad but, more often than not, I find that the larger chunks of potato are to hard and not thoroughly cooked through. We've got a reunion coming up in a couple of weeks and I'm excited to give this method a try!
I like how you literally have a ceramic foam plate.
I'm excited about this! Perfect timing for summer cookouts!!!
I never knew how much I wanted to make potato salad, until I saw this video.
I think I'll try try this, and fold in the ingredients instead of cutting them in for less of a mashed potato salad. Thanks for the vid.
My problem is that I'd eat the entire salad. Leave nothing for anyone else. I have no self-control when something looks this delish.
Instead of celery.......use diced dill pickles........Yep ! !
Please give me baklava. I'm going through things, and it comforts my soul
Chef John today is my birthday!! Huge fan of your channel!!
You didn't even attempt to be gentle with your potatoes, thus you end up with Mashed Potato Salad. Oye!
This looked so good. Can't wait.
That looks very good, thank you for sharing.
these videos make me want to learn to cook....
I am making this tomorrow for sure!!! Summer is here and this is awesome!
Making the smashed cucumber too! Can't wait :)
i always smile with your videos. Thank you.
Love your recipes
I need to try this recipe!
I love this!!!
I do the Julia Child method, letting the potatoes soak up a few Tablespoons of chicken stock and Cider Vinegar, everything else is pretty much the same except adding pickles and bacon.
So crazy, seems like when I'm craving something to eat you post a video of it , except this time I beat you to it and made it before your video posted hehe love your videos, me and my husband just lay around watching them trying to decide which we will cook next😆
Heyyyyyy where's the "you are after all, the...." quote???

well to be fair, he rhymed "salad" with "valid"
this video made me happy. thanks bud
this was very needed in the food wishes collection
Use chopped dill pickles instead of the celery and add garlic powder, and do half vinegar and half dill pickle juice.
... "it's gonna break up in the bowl" proceeds to use the metal spoon as a chopping tool .. love yer work, babe, just love it.
looks super yummy
Ohhhh potato salad! *grabby hands*
You need to visit us on the Instant Pot FB page. We cook our potatoes and eggs at the same time. My mom taught me to add the vinegar to the warm cut potatoes. When cool add everything else plus some sweet pickle relish. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Bliss.
Love your videos
Looks good! I always add a bunch of ingredients into mine to keep it interesting. Mayo as the primary ingredient of course (if you use light mayo, or (god forbid) yogurt or sour cream you're doing it completely wrong), mustard, a splash of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, relish, and a sprinkle of hot sauce make up the dressing. Garlic powder, dried parsley, and salt to sprinkle over the hot potatoes, and then that goes right into the dressing still warm to absorb all the flavors. Onion, celery, and boiled eggs are a must, maybe even some crumbled bacon and bell pepper. And it's always best if it gets a little bit smashed up like mashed potatoes.
... Damn it now I'm getting hungry.
I. Want. GYROS!
yes I was waiting for something like this thanks
I love your channel!!! Potato Salad without relish seems risky. I'm going to give your recipe a shot, given your stellar reputation.
Awesome 😉
You are the Wynonna Judd of what you choose for your spud...
Can you make Mantu (Afghan dumpling dish)? Or bolaani (potato turnover)? I'd really appreciate it. YOU'RE THE BEST!!!!
For a different dressing for the salad, take sour cream, finely grated cheese (Cheddar or cheddar jack tends to be the best), crumbled bacon, and some green onion (Or dried chives). Works better for those like me who have issues with mustard...
Hello Mr Cayenne 😀
Lots of love from down under
My dad is the in charge of the potato salad in the house. Recently, because he has to watch his salt, he's been cooking everything with NO salt. I should show him this video...
Those sausages looked good in the fridge. Those prob go well with potato salad. I would def want chef at my church potluck
perfect
My hero.
chef John!!!! no sweet pickles???? c'mon man!!!😉
Tim B
sweet pickles, pimento and celery seed. what the women in my family always included along with Chef John's basic recipe. Of course they never boiled the potatoes in salt water.
Highly recommend maris piper with potato salad for an even more amazing texture!
I've missed watching your videos!! Haven't been getting on CZcams as often anymore
Except with cayenne. . . Of course.
nailed it...
Wow, I make mine the exact same. I add pimentos though to it.
Just a quick question. Do I need to let the potatoes cool to room temperature prior to mixing with the dressing? Thanks, it was slightly unclear in the video.
Add crumbled bacon as a garnish so that it doesn't get soggy; you won't regret it!
Room temp is key I'm guessing.. lol!! looks great. I know what in making tomorrow!
Gotta use my grandma's secret ingredient on this: pickle juice
YUM
My perfect potato salad:
No cayenne (John would hate me for this, but I despise cayenne)
No celery
No mustard
No Eggs
Add:
Some sugar to the dressing
P.S. I'm from NY, and I like the classic NY style potato salad.
You are, after all, the overbearing dad of your potato sal-ad!
I'd love a video on chow chow, because thats exactly what i would add to this
love the tips and techniques. for mine though, i add sugar and tons more eggs and the famous paprika on top 😂😂😂
