Bud’s Potato Salad
Here's my Dad's unique potato salad recipe, a preparation method I've rarely come across. Whenever I bring a bowl of this dish to an event, it consistently disappears quickly, leaving an empty bowl behind.
Ingredients
- 10 pounds potatoes
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 onions, diced
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon celery seed
- 2 cups mayonnaise
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and allow to cool.
- Slice cooled potatoes and layer in a large bowl or dish.
- In a saucepan combine water, vinegar and sugar. Bring to a boil and cook for one minute. Remove from heat and pour over potatoes. Cover and chill for at least 12 hours.
- Drain excess marinade and add onions, salt, pepper, celery seed and mayonnaise. Mix well and serve chilled.
