How to Make

  • Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; cook the potatoes in the boiling water until fork-tender, about 15 minutes; drain. Run cold water over the potatoes to cool; drain again.

  • Step 2: To assemble place cooled potatoes in large bowl.

  • Step 3: Add pickle juice and stir.

  • Step 4: Add the eggs, onion, and pickles; mix.

  • Step 5: Add the mayonnaise and mustard and stir till all is well combined (If you feel it is too dry, add more mayo not juice).

  • Step 6: Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  • Step 7: Cool down completely then cover tightly and refrigerate overnight to set.

  • Step 8: IMPORTANT! If you do not let it cool down before adding to the refrigerator, condensation will form on the lid and drip down into your salad which is not a good thing!
