Ingredients
- 2 pounds potatoes (6)
- 6 cups water, boiling
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Salad
- 1/4 cup onions, minced
- 1 stalk celery, sliced
- 1 egg , hardboiled, diced
- Dressing
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 teaspoon mustard, dry
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1 ounce sour cream (1 tablespoon)
- 1 tablespoon pickle juice
How to Make
-
Step 1: Boil the potatoes in heavily salted boiling water and, when done, drain.
-
Step 2: Remove the skins and slice.
-
Step 3: Add some chopped onions and chopped celery. (How much depends on what you want the texture to be.)
-
Step 4: Add one crumbled hard-boiled egg to the potatoes, celery, and onions, and then combine with the dressing mixture.
-
Step 5: Dressing: Take some dry mustard powder, and a tablespoon or two of sour cream. First you have to make a sauce of the dry mustard, some mayonnaise, and the sour cream-but go easy on the sour cream.
-
Step 6: Season to taste.
-
Step 7: The main part of the mixture should be the mayonnaise, Midler advises.
-
Step 8: Add Midler’s secret ingredient... a splash of pickle juice.
-
Step 9: Add more mayonnaise if needed.
-
Step 10: Season to taste.
