This is my favorite potato salad of all I’ve made so far. Love the dressing with the egg yolk mixed in and the egg whites tossed into the potatoes—much tastier than sliced hard boiled eggs laying on top of finished salad. Added extra mustard for zest and I always add some diced celery and a few ribbons of carrot for texture and color.
The yolk is combined into the dressing and doesn't remain visible, the whites are chopped to add to the potatoes.
sent this to my gf to make for july 4. she mentioned to me the following: no salt or pepper in ingredients and no mentioning of "seasoning" in preparation. Also couldn't figure out why the need to separate whites and yolks in the final product--didn't affect taste or texture of final product. a totally unnecessary complication in a mayonnaise-based salad. if vinegrette-based perhaps.
I agree with another that a pinch of smoked paprika adds a certain something lovely!
Great recipe. Added a bit of kosher salt and some hungarian paprika, topped with pickled onions. Went wonderfully with bratwurst.
Best I've made, simple and, like others suggested, I omitted the sugar but did toss in some crumbled bacon bits
