Newsgroup: rec.food.cooking
5 pounds boiled potatoes (new potatoes are best), chilled, then peeled and sliced 3/16-inch thick (not diced). Do not use baking potatoes. Do not overcook.
1/2 cup grated carrot
1/4 cup each red and green bell pepper - small dice
1/4 cup minced curly parsley
Dressing
1 1/2 cups Hellman's Mayonnaise
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1/2 Tbsp ground black pepper
1/2 Tbsp powdered mustard (optional)
Mix potatoes with dressing (mix with hands).
Not all potatoes are created equal, so...
Thin dressing with milk (buttermilk is best) if necessary.
Adjust vinegar, salt, pepper to taste.
Refrigerate 24 hours before serving.
Dust finished salad with paprika.
NYC deli-style potato salad contains no onion, no sugar.
