Southern Potato Salad Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.

2. 2

   Cook the Potatoes

   Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and let cool.

3. 3

   Mix the Dressing

   In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sweet pickle relish, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until well blended.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Once the potatoes have cooled, add them to the bowl with the dressing. Then add the diced celery, chopped red onion, and chopped hard-boiled eggs. Gently fold everything together until evenly coated.

5. 5

   Chill and Serve

   Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld. Before serving, garnish with sliced green onions if desired.
