      Superb! Not your ordinary potato salad thats for sure. The dressing is really what makes this recipe and I had rave reviews from family with it. Will make this a lot over Summer. Thanks for posting.

      This potato salad was delicious. The dressing was yummy. I like the sweet taste. I had some dressing left over so I used it to make a macaroni salad. Thanks

      Made this for Ducky's Tailgate Party and actually took it to a real UA tailgate yesterday--GO HOGS!! This made a very good potato salad. I used 4 boiled eggs but will probably increase to 6, like you, next time. The dressing is what makes this so delicious and everyone was curious about how I made it. Travels well in an ice-chest. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. Thanks Teresa M.

      Good stuff! DD and DH really liked this salad. DH doesn't normally care for potato salad but he gobbled this salad up and said that it had more flavor than most potato salads that he's tried.

      Yum! Yum! Yum!- I left out the sugar and the celery (my dh doesnt like it). I also didnt heat the begining with the eggs (left it out). This is super good and easy. This is great to take to picnics and barbecues. Thanks so much for sharing.

      This is a delicious moist potato salad. Easy to prepare too. It was way to sweet for my taste (but that is personal preference and not posters fault). It uses far fewer eggs that my usual recipe and is also quicker to prepare. I will be making this one again adjusting the sugar amount. Thanks Teresa M. for posting! 1/6/11. made again using just 2 tablespoons of sugar and I LOVE it. It has such a nice consistancy and a hint of tartness that makes the flavor awesome that and being so easy to put together will make this a favorite. You must try it!

      Delicious! I really liked it! As suggested by previous reviewres, I reduced a little bit the sugar and it was just perfect. I will definitely do it again. Thanks for sharing!

      I agree with others that the recommended amount of sugar makes this too sweet but that can be adjusted. Since we prefer a tart potato salad I cut the sugar down by half and will probably cut it even more next time. I really like the precooking method. It makes a nice creamy dressing. After a day in the fridge it tasted even better. This is going into my cookbook and definately will be repeated. Thanks for sharing Teresa M.

      This was my first attempt at making a homemade potato salad. I opted for this one because it was the first that I had all the ingredients for. I used yellow prepared mustard instead of mustard seed (wasn't sure which one the recipe needed, it wasn't specified.) End result was decent, everyone liked it.

      This had a very good flavor. I almost followed it exactly but didn't have any celery so I put 1 teaspoon of celery seed in it like my mom always did. I thought the dressing was too thin and next time I'll omit the water. Oh and I added 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder.

      I am not a fan of potato salad, but I had so many potatoes and hard-boiled eggs (and ham!) to use up after Easter dinner and picked this recipe to help me use up a lot of my leftovers. I was very pleasantly surprised! The proportions and flavors were really good. This is now my permanent potato salad recipe! Thank you :)

      Making this for father's day along with smoked pulled pork, coleslaw and baked beans. I had a recipe that was very similar, but missing something. This is the ONE!! I will never go back to another plain mayo/mustard recipe again. I used 8 russetts boiled in jackets, then cooled, peeled and sliced. I added 2 T butter to the sauce (that was in my other recipe) which makes it richer. Used EVOO mayo and regular prepared mustard. Also added dash of cayenne and white pepper. I left out the relish, but used celery and onion chopped very fine and 5 eggs that I mashed the yolks and mixed in w/ sauce, then chopped the whites. Garnish with paprika and sliced egg. Decided to make a day ahead to let flavors blend. Fabulous!

      I used this recipe for my first attempt at making a home-made potato salad and I got just what I was looking for! I love the sweetness and the creaminess (it didn't get pastey!) of this recipe. It was also very easy to make. I added a couple extra tablespoons of sugar, just because I like it sweet and I left out the relish because I don't like relish. I cooked the potatoes in their skins and cooled them before peeling and my potatoes came out perfect! This salad got even better every day I ate it after I made it! Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe!
