Ingredients
- 2 pounds small red potatoes cut into bite-size pieces
- 2 ribs celery diced
- ¼ cup onion (green onions or shallots) diced
- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 2 tablespoons diced pimiento
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- salt and pepper
- Paprika for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the potatoes by cutting them into bite-size pieces.
- Put the cubed potatoes into a steamer basket over boiling water and cook until fork tender.
- While the potatoes cook, chop the celery and onions and add them to a large bowl along with the sweet pickle relish and pimiento.
- In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, salt and pepper.
- Drain the potatoes very well. You can even return them to the hot pan for a few minutes to allow all the water to evaporate. You want them quite dry but still warm.
- Combine the drained, cooked potatoes in a large bowl with the celery, scallions, pickle relish, and well-drained pimiento.
- Add the mayonnaise mixture and gently toss until well combined.
- Spoon into a serving dish and dust with paprika.
- Serve warm or chilled.
Notes
- Potato salad shouldn’t sit out at room temperature for extended periods of time – two hours is the absolute maximum. Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. Freezing is not recommended.
- May be made the day before serving. Store tightly covered in the refrigerator until needed.
