    I've been making this style potato salad for 60 years. This is the single most authentic American potato salad recipe I've come across. I'm glad I found you, because I'm old now, and I tend to forget things I used to know quite well. Lately I realized I had forgotten parts of mom's recipe for potato salad which dated back to before WW II. I made this tonight and this is it! During the war we ate a lot of potatoes, because meat was scarce and very expensive. After all, we had 17 million men in uniform. Thank you. You made an old man very happy.

    OMG. A man after my own heart!
    I have been watching potato salad video recipes just out of curiosity to see what others put in their potato salad. I was starting to think I was the only one who peeled and cubed my potatoes BEFORE boiling them. I also seem to be a rare person who uses fresh dill in the dressing.

    This is my "go to" potato salad recipe. I don't add as much sugar or mayo, but I like the potato flake idea. I also like some red in my potato salad, so I add 1/2 of a red bell pepper that I chop up finely in my food processor. I also add some grated cheddar, and I mash some of the potatoes. Damn good salad!! I live by myself, and don't get to make it often enough.

    In addition to the celery I had added diced green and red bell pepper to give it a little hint of natural vegetable sweetness and added crunch to the celery in the recipe along with garnishing at the end with the green ends of scallions that I had in the vegetable crisper of my refrigerator. Excellent taste profile and well balanced. Thank you for sharing your recipe, a definite keeper!

    I wrote this out for myself, so I figured I'd share and save you all the time.
    3 lb russet potatoes, peeled and cut into bite size cubes
    2 large eggs in shell, washed
    1½ cups mayonnaise
    ¼ cup white sugar
    2 tbsp sweet pickle relish
    2 tsp distilled white vinegar
    2 tsp prepared yellow mustard
    1½ tsp salt
    ½ small yellow onion, diced
    2 ribs celery, diced
    2 tbsp instant mashed potato flakes
    Place potatoes and eggs in a large pot. Add enough water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a gentle boil. Cook potatoes and eggs for about 10 minutes or just until potato falls apart when pierced with a fork. Remove eggs and place in a bowl of very cold water. Drain potatoes and set aside until completely cooled.
    Peel the eggs, place in a large bowl, and coarsely break them up with a fork. Add the mayo, sugar, relish, vinegar, mustard, salt, onion, and celery and mix well to combine. Add the cooled potatoes to the bowl and gently fold into the dressing. Add the potato flakes and gently fold to combine.
    Refrigerate for 4-6 hours.

    When I boil eggs, I use the back of a spoon and hit the eggs 3-4 times just before they are finished cooking.
    In this way the water is allowed to sleep through the shell making it easier to peel off after I have placed them in cool water to cool off till manageable.

    gariic powder. I also add the instant potato flakes to the dressing before adding the potatoes.

    I'm afraid if I make this, it will end up being my main course! LOL I'll eat the whole thing! I will make this because it looks SO good and easy to make. Thanks for all the wonderful recipes you bring us! LOVE your Cinnamon buns!! Any of you watches, if you haven't made his Cinnamon buns, you're missing out!
