Mimi’s Potato Salad

Place potatoes in a large pot covered in cold water and boil them. It takes about 20-45 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes. Check with a fork to determine doneness – they should be soft throughout when done. When done, remove from heat and drain the water and allow to cool. Once cooled completely, peel and cube them.

While potaotes boil, place eggs in a medium to large pot, cover with cold water and add a little salt. Put them over heat and when the eggs come to a rolling boil, remove from heat and let them sit covered for 13-15 minutes. Peel and chop once cooled. I run the eggs under cold water and peel them.

Place potatoes, hard boiled eggs and chopped onion aside in a large bowl.

Next, in a medium bowl, whisk the milk or half and half into the Miracle Whip. Whisk in the mustard and salt and pepper. Taste and make adjustments as needed. Pour over potato mixture and coat. Garnish with slices of hard-boiled egg if desired. Enjoy!

Notes:
The salt in the water helps keep the eggs from cracking while boiling.
When peeling them, hit the egg dead center on the narrow end and they seem to peel easier.
