i have been assigned potato salad.

[neci]

it will have carrots and peas.

 

[adrina]

Creamy or vinaigrette?

 

[neci]

im going to soak the warm potatoes in brine, then a creamy dressing.

 

[adrina]

With peas and carrots I think a creamy one would be more suitable.

I just usually add a serious amount of salt to the water when I cook them.

 

[neci]

i like the creamy mayo, just a bit of mustard, with peas and carrots.

there’s another part of me that wants to go artichoke hearts and green olives.

 

[neci]

can’t forget the salt!

 

[Dribble]

It isn't potato salad without sweet pickle juice

 

[Dribble]

And red onions

 

[neci]

the little sweet pickles

 

[doowdniw]

Thinly sliced scallions, perhaps?
And ditch any chopped celery (although celery seed would be okay).

 

[adrina]

I use Grandma's recipe:

Boiled russets in heavily salted water, peeled then cubed. Hard boiled eggs. Onions, celery, dill pickles, sweet pickles. Garlic, parsley, salt and pepper. Mayo, milk, mustard, dill pickle juice.

I like the crunch it provides. However it might clash with the peas and carrots.

I wish I remembered the recipe for the German potato salad I used to make at a BBQ joint in Texas. It was absolutely incredible.

• Potato
• Vinegar (not sure which kind)
• Diced red onions
• Bacon bits

I'm pretty sure I'm missing something though.

If only you’d made a photocopy of the recipe....

 

[HisArpy]

Wait, there's yet ANOTHER gender that can be "assigned"?

M, F, Agender, Neutrois... Potato Salad...


My god, what is the world coming to?

 

[rockcasbah]

I sometimes add a little finely diced apple as a counterpoint to the onion.

 

[Liar]

I swear by this one.

Sourcream, mayo, red onion, red bell peppers, garlic, tarragon, thyme, a slop of dijon, a fistful of capers and more black pepper than seems reasonable.

Key is to pan the onions , peppers and garlic first until caramelized.

potato salad assignment. serious shit and don't fuck it up.

Indeed.

Easter potato salad is serious.

 

[neci]

i know. when i told the man i’d been assigned the potato salad, his response was, “oh shit. they’ve got you now.”

 

[stickygirl]

I'm a potato salad heathen, illiterate, base, twiddle free, but happy in my culinary ignorance

 

[oneblueye]

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[stickygirl]

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i would use my special red velvet cake potato salad for such an event.

 

[pantalaimonlyra]

I've become fond of using small, multicolored potatoes in my salad. It's pretty.
