Ingredients
  

  • 4 to 5 cups cubed potatoes*
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion
  • 3 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped sweet pickle
  • 2 teaspoons sweet pickle juice
  • 1/2 to 2/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon prepared mustard, or more
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Put the potatoes in a large saucepan; cover with water and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Place the pan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Drain and set aside to cool.
  • When the potatoes have cooled, put them in a large bowl. Add the celery, red onion, and hard-boiled eggs.
  • In a small bowl, combine the pickle and juice, 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, and 1 teaspoon of mustard. Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt and the pepper. Blend well.
  • Gently stir the dressing mixture into the potato mixture. Add more mayonnaise or mustard, as needed, and adjust seasonings, to taste.
  • Refrigerate the salad until thoroughly chilled.
