Potato salad
Potato Salad is a salad made from potatoes, varying between different regions and countries of the world. Many people will say that they have the 'authentic' or the 'best' potato salad, and offer the 'one true' way to make a perfect potato salad. What is the 'best' salad is a purely personal preference - some people like the potatoes creamy and mingled with the dressing, some like them soft and tender, and others prefer them almost crisp.General versions of potato salad include:
- salad made with baby potatoes, cooked in their jackets and left whole (skin on)
- larger potatoes, cooked in their jackets and then peeled and cut
- salad with mayonnaise/sour cream/milk dressing
- salad with vinegar dressing
- salad with bacon, anchovies, or mustard.
- salad with a fresh herb dressing and/or gherkins, capers and other spices.
- salad with raw onions, cooked onions or pickled onions.
- 8 large Irish potatoes, peeled and boiled and quartered
- 2 onions, diced finely and mixed with the potatoes
- 2 spoons of Mayonaisse
- 1 1/2 spoons of sour cream
- 10 Pickled Gherkins finely diced
- 3 carrots diced finely stirred in.
