Recipe: Traditional Potato Salad?

Long before red potato and sour cream variations started appearing on picnic tables across the U.S., classic potato salad was considered one of those perfect foods that mom knew how to make best. It included lots of egg, plenty of mayo and a dollop of mustard -- just enough to add some sass. Today, potato salad comes in all shapes and sizes, but the classics never really die away. After much research and an afternoon spent deciphering notes on the margins of an old recipe, here's the potato salad that launched a generation of summers, at our house, anyway. Traditional Potato Salad Ingredients 8 Idaho potatoes, peeled, boiled, drained and diced 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped 1 cup yellow onion, diced 2 celery ribs, strings removed, diced 2 tbsp. chopped parsley, fresh 1-1/2 cups quality mayonnaise 2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar 2 tbsp. white granulated sugar 1 tbsp. yellow ballpark mustard 2 tsp. sweet pickle relish 1 tsp. garlic powder 1 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. pepper Paprika (for garnish, of course) Directions Place diced potatoes, eggs, onion, celery and parsley in a large bowl. Fold to incorporate. Set aside. In a second, smaller bowl, combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, mustard, relish, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir to incorporate. Fold the mayonnaise mixture into the potato mixture. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Before serving time, decorate with a sprinkling of paprika. Recipe serves 12
