Hey YouTube last week was potato stew this week we’re doing potato salad this is my wife’s like Famous Recipe if you can say such a thing uh people always ask for it when we cook like gumbos and things like that so I finally got her to

Let me video her making the potato salad so she’s boiling about 2 and2 lbs of potatoes they’re rusted potatoes and with the potatoes she boils her eggs there’s 10 eggs and actually one that I left in here you can probably see it I didn’t see it till I poured them

Out all right so potatoes I let those boil until they’re fork tender so when you stick them in you stick a fork in them and then you pull the fork up if they don’t come out with the fork they’re done all right now they’re done so I’m going to strain

Them there you go always pour it away from you ignore the dirty dishes in the other sink there’s the egg so what we’re going to do is we’re going to take all the eggs peel them and then separate the yolks from the egg whites so once you get all the egg

Whites separate you want to crush the yolks um pretty similar to like you were making deviled eggs uh which is another recipe I’m going to be posting pretty soon so get them all mixed up like this all right so that looks that’s looking good now it’s

Time to work on the egg whites you want to mash those down you know break those up leave them as chunky as you want I like mine pretty small um I usually hit them with a potato masher a few times all right now we’re going to work on this it’s uh add

About two tablespoons maybe a tablespoon and a half it really depends on how much mustard you like if you like the mustard flavor add a little bit more I personally prefer less mustard more Mayo So speaking of that we’re going to add two tablespoons of mayo just to get it mixed

In we will add more Mayo later after we get the potatoes and everything mixed together so we can judge the consistency at that point uh usually add a little bit of no not much or you can just use straight salt and pepper I like no and a little

Bit of black pepper so what I did here was about probably a teaspoon of each teaspoon of black pepper teaspoon of no add a little bit of paprika a couple of dashes and then mix it all together I fast forwarded it because it takes a

Little bit of time to get all of the Mayo and mustard fully mixed in here we are now it’s time to mash potatoes hopefully you have some anger going on right now CU you can take them out on the potatoes um just get those mashed up real quick like this uh once they’re

Mixed in add we actually added that other egg the yolk straight in here go ahead and add your egg whites that you mashed yeah so get those once you get those mixed in all the way uh go ahead and give it a stir you know just to kind

Of incorporate the egg whites so get those mixed in here we go pretty much done mixing those now it’s time to add the um the egg yolk mixture so again uh get that added in there all right once you have it all added go ahead and mix it thoroughly as well

And it’s going to take a while just take your time it’s going to it doesn’t mix very fast that’s for sure but it’s coming together pretty nicely now uh as you can tell it’s starting to get that good uh yellow color for potato salad yeah I mean once you get here you you

Pretty much have your base you need to now add Mayo to get the right consistency I probably have another cup of mayo start at a cup add a little bit more um until you get the consistency that you’re looking for if you like relish or anything in your potato salad now would

Be a good time to add it and get it mixed in thoroughly so yeah guys this is pretty much the recipe it’s very similar to my mom’s recipe with some slight alterations it’s really really good it’s already actually all gone which is a bummer because it was really good so

Yeah guys if this video helped you out or you just like watching me cook or make these videos because I really enjoy them Please Subscribe have a blessed day thanks
