This salad dressing is for potato salad and macaroni salad

1/4 cup of cider vinegar
1/4 cup of water
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of mayonaise (Miracle whip will make the dressing tangier)
1/2 cup of sugar
1 1/2 Tablespoons of prepared mustard
2 eggs

Combine all ingredients and either mix well or whip with a mixer. Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly.
Poor over cooked potatoes, celery, onions, celery seed and hard cooked eggs.
For macaroni salad add green pepper, celery and onion and celery seed, and carrots.

My mother makes the same thing except leaves out the mayo. Cook the other ingredients then add 1 cup sour cream or in a pinch 1 cup canned milk.
So good!

I have been doing this for years; however, you do not have to cook it. My Mom who was Dutch taught me how to make dressings.

Thank you. GG

How many potatoes or pound of potatoes do you use?
Thanks

Hi,
I usually make about 4-5 large russets plus add celery, onion, hard boiled eggs and celery seed. It is a good idea to keep the 5th potato at the side until you have everything together. Then if you have a enough of the dressing you won't have to much potato. Remember, the dressing is warm and so are the potatoes..and they will absorb the dressing.
I hope this helps! You can make macaroni salad with this also.
