Potato Salad: Mayonnaise or mustard?

[InWord]

It is coming up on summer and this is important. If this starts to get out of hand, I will make a poll.

 

[chillywilly2]

who in the hell ever heard of mustard on tater salad?

 

[InWord]

Oh my.

I knew this was going to get ugly, but, damn.

 

[ElasticMermaid]

Abort.

 

[InWord]

I take the blame. I did not properly vet this thread. Someone will surely begin the question about dill or sweet relish in the salad. Bitches.

 

[thør]

Both.

(That with regard to the mayo and cheap yellow mustard)

Just a bit of sweet pickle relish. Save the dill for your banger.

Yukon gold taters (peeled)
Duke's mayo
White vinegar
Celery
Celery seed
Salt
Pepper.

Nothing more, nothing less.

 

[BabblingBrooke]

Mayo! Bacon grease is a nice bonus.

No eggs?

You're a communist, right?

Fuck me... I forgot the eggs.

Of course there are hard boiled eggs in there.

Mom used to sprinkle a bit of paprika on the sliced eggs that decorated the top of the bowl of potato salad.

Pimentos? Finely chopped onion? Is God dead?

Both, light on the mustard. And, despite what my wife says, eggs.

 

[Aquagal]

Mine always includes both mayo and mustard. And whoever thought of making it without boiled eggs?

Sometimes I really go overboard and add olives and artichokes.

Bacon!

 

[JohnnySavage]

I would permit a few thinly sliced scallions for color.

Bona fide home wrecker.

 

[Aquagal]

Every bite should include onion.

 

[ElijaRDC]

If I thought about potato salad long enough, I could vomit hands-free.

 

[spacekowboy]

Both but you use mustard powder. I will not give up the recipe for my family potato salad though. Suffice to say it is the greatest potato salad in the history of potatoes or salad.

 

[chillywilly2]

gotta have green onions too...and every once in a while, a bit of tomatoe...but NOT mustard

Mine too, but in the spirit of the thread the mustard is a dab and the flavor is all Hellman's.

Artichokes? Interesting.

Valid.

Blasphemy!

Alt!

This addition could quite possibly be the yuckiest of them all. All that gelatinous stuff touching my taters.

Simple is best when it comes to potato salad.
