"I am giddy, expectation whirls me round.
The imaginary relish is so sweet
That it enchants my sense."
-William Shakespeare, Bard
The refrigerator light goes on...
This is a fantastic potato salad submitted by Barbara Gendelman. It is a low-sodium recipe and it tastes great. The combination of the ground yellow mustard and the tanginess of the vinegar with just a touch of sweet relish is brilliant.
Vinegars
For the most part I have specified what type of vinegar to use in a specific recipe.
Vinegar is almost always made from wine (or any alcoholic beverage) by fermenting the alcohol with acid, thereby producing bacteria. So, apple cider vinegar comes from just that and white vinegar comes from clear grain alcohol.
Most recipes call for white or red wine vinegar. Purchasing better quality vinegars is important to making your recipe great. Less expensive vinegars are produced in large vats, often in a day or two. More complex vinegars are made over time in much the same fashion as making wine, using oak casks and prolonged fermentation and aging.
You will see herbed vinegars on the market (like tarragon vinegar). These are simply vinegars that have been steeped with herbs or infused with other flavors.
This recipe makes great leftovers. Note that the cooking time does not include chilling time.
3 quarts
water
1 lb
Yukon Gold potatoes
2 Tbsp
2% milk
1 Tbsp
reduced-fat mayonnaise
1/4 tsp
ground yellow mustard
1 tsp
sweet pickle relish
1 tsp
apple cider vinegar
1/4 tsp
dried parsley flakes
1/4 tsp
paprika
Place the water in a medium stock pot over high heat. When the water boils add the potatoes and reduce the heat to medium. Boil potatoes about 35 minutes or until done.
Drain the potatoes and let them cool. Peel and cut into 1/2 - 1 inch dice.
Place the milk, mayonnaise, mustard, pickle relish and vinegar in a medium mixing bowl and mix well.
Gently fold the sauce together with the diced potatoes.
Chill for at least an hour and when ready to serve sprinkle with parsley flakes and paprika as garnish (optional).
