This is the best potato salad Ive have ever eaten. It mimics my Nana’s recipe to a tee. My family get togethers always have to have this potato salad at them. If I don t bring it, everyone gets upset. Lol. JK. but they do want it every single time. Thank you so much for bringing me and my family back to remember when my Nana made it.

In reply to Sam Merritt. I did just that, adjusting some of the dressing ingredients as needed and it was PERFECT. Got so many compliments and was (of course) asked for the recipe - thanks for another winner!

In reply to Elaine. Hi Elaine! I would just double or triple all of the ingredients when making it. I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much. :)

Made this yesterday and loved it! Thinking about making it for an upcoming potluck this weekend – any tips/tricks for doubling (or tripling) the recipe or should I just make twice (or three times) the batch following the recipe as written?

The best potato salad I’ve ever ever eaten hands down. It reminds me of my Nana’s who passed away in 2014. Keep up the good work. Can’t wait to try the Mac salad. Yum!

Can you use a sweet pickle relish instead of the ghekins?

I can’t wait to make this delicious potato salad. Thank you for sharing your recipes and instructions on how to prepare the recipe on your you tube channel, you truly are amazing. I work in a homeless shelter and I’ve shared this website with my clients, it teaches them how to cook and utilize ingredients. Again, thank you for helping others learn life skills . God bless you.

In reply to Bill. I'm so glad you've enjoyed it so much, Bill! I'm honored to be ranking with your grandmother's potato salad. :)

In reply to Sam. Hi Stan, I have adopted this as our go to summer potato salad, using red potatoes. A very acceptable mod is to substitute sweet pickle relish for the chopped pickle and the sweet pickle juice. This salad always receives raves. It ranks right up there with my beloved German grandmother's German potato salad (truly old world).

In reply to Stacey D.. Hi Stacey! I have not used red potatoes here, but I don't see any reason it wouldn't be delicious. :)

Have you tried using the red potatoes? This is what I like to use. Use to use the
russett potatoes. Had a friend who did catering and she made it with the red potatoes. Now that’s all we use.
