    Hi guys! Summer is right around the corner and we all need a great potato salad recipe, right? This is my mom's recipe and I'm excited to share it with you today. I've got another classic recipe coming your way next week that you don't want to miss either. Stay tuned! ;) xo - Lisa

      Helpful hint: you can cook the eggs in the pot right along with the potatoes! 8-)

    I find it easier to keep stems on veges when shredding. It gives me more holding distance and I can shred more. Recipe looks great, I'll use some of the sprouting radishes an give it a try. Thanks!

    I am tardy getting back to you on this. I have made this recipe a few times now and have had great results. I did a minor change and went 50/50 with mayo and Greek yogurt. Also, I get fresh daikon radishes from a local veggie farmer so I used them. Last night was spur of the moment because I had half a sack of russet potatoes and a bunch of fresh dill left from another project. Salad was great. I have also made you black bean soup last week and that was excellent as well. Thanks for doing what you do!!

    I’m clearly from the Midwest, my potato salad DOES use russet potatoes, diced onion, sweet relish, hard boiled eggs, yellow mustard, mayo and salt/pepper. That’s what I grew up eating, so to me it’s the best, but I will definitely give this a shot! I saw somebody in the comments mentioned adding capers, too, that sounds amazing!

    • @Downshiftology
      @Downshiftology  5 років тому +1

      There are nutrients in the potato skins so if you buy organic and give them a good scrub, I think it's better to leave them on. The skins on red and white potatoes are thin and soft as well. :)
