In the south, potato salad is a staple when preparing meals for the summer holidays.
It goes perfectly with hamburgers, hotdogs, and barbecue.
My favorite potato salad to serve with my summer holiday meals is Southern Mustard Potato Salad.
Mustard Potato Salad is a time-consuming side dish to make but it is worth it.
I recommend making it the night before you plan to serve it. This will not only allow you enough time to prepare it but it will cause the flavors to combine together.
One ingredient that I add to my Mustard Potato Salad is bacon.
I love bacon and bacon makes everything better.
- 4-5 Russett potatoes, washed, peeled and cubed
- 4-5 hard-boiled eggs
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 1/2 yellow onion, diced
- 1/2 cup dill pickle relish
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 1/2 cup mayonaisse
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- Pepper, to season
- Paprika, garnish
As I stated above, Mustard Potato Salad is easy to make but a bit time-consuming. You will want to allow enough time to not only make it but to have it chill before you serve it.
- Boil your potatoes until they reach the desired preferred consistency, I cooked mine for 25 minutes
- Drain the potatoes, drain as much water off of the potatoes as possible
- Place the unshelled eggs in a medium bowl and smash/cut them lightly with a fork or knife
- In a large bowl, add the potatoes, eggs, celery, onion, bacon, salt, pepper, and pickle relish
- Stir in half of the mustard and half of the mayonnaise. Once combined, stir in the remaining mustard and mayonnaise.
- Chill until ready to serve
- Before serving, sprinkle with paprika
