We have made this several times and I can't believe I have never reviewed it. We seldom use the eggs simply for time factor, although we do like them. The flavor is really good and the technique is easy to follow. I didn't think the original recipe called for russet potatoes, although they work fine and are usually cheaper so that is ok by me.

I have tried to wing potato salad recipes all my life with no succsss in order to try and mimic my mom's (the world's best, in my opinion). This is just as good as my mom's - dare I say better? I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of the relish - I used Vlasic Dill Relish. Even better the second day. Don't use lo-fat mayo, just not as good.
