This is just what I was looking for! This was my first time making potato salad so I was nervous, but it came out wonderful! I don't think I changed anything in this recipe. My only suggestion is to make sure your potatoes are good and cool before peeling and cutting. I made the mistake of not waiting long enough and thought I was going to end up with potato mush, but after putting the potatoes in the refrigerator they hardened up nicely instead of being mushy. I will make this again!!!

Delicious! I originally left out the egg but added later to get the really creamy consistency.

I rate this 5 b/c it is a very good "basic" recipe! We all have different tastes; hence, we tweak most recipes accordingly by adding more or less of this n that and also, making our own personal additions. (However, by us doing this, it definitely does NOT and SHOULD NOT give a recipe a lower rating!) Thx for sharing this recipe with us! Like many dishes, it is best if allowed to set overnight for the taste to peak!

I have to admit that I am not a real potato salad fan, but my husband is. He loved this and said it reminded him of the potato salad that his grandma made on the farm. Thanks!

This was OK but not our favorite. I wanted to try this because sometimes people’s taste change and I thought maybe I have grown to like mustard in my potato salad but found out none of my family does. I had to add a lot more than ¼ cup of mayo because it was quite dry. I will most likely stick to my mixture of sour cream and mayo, no mustard or relish and add bacon pieces.

I would have given this 5-stars if it was my mother's tater salad. I think this one is awful good - the family (who doesn't like tater salad) even liked it. Excellent!

This was a very good recipe, just like I was used to eating as a kid. It is the style that I think is also considered southern style potato salad. Like some of the others, I used fewer eggs; one for every two potatoes. I used golden potatoes, which gave it a nice taste. I also chopped up dill pickles to use as the relish. It was good as soon as it was ready, but even better the next day. It was a big hit with my family, all who cook quite well, and now it is a dish I'm known for. Thanks!!

This was a great salad. I changed it a little bit by adding one grated carrot and I used green onions.

This is the classic potato salad. It was great. I did add a little paprika to the top of mine, and my husband put bacon bits on his. It does not need to be changed at all. It was even better the following day.

I just made this and I love it. I couldn't keep my fingers out of it. It really reminds me of my mom's recipe - basic- but yummy. I have been trying to recreate it for the last 12 years since she died. Thanks a lot. Yumm Yumm!!

Great recipe. I made it when we had family over and was little nervous as I had never made potato salad before. Everyone loved it. Next time I will make it the day before though as it better the day after.
