Five fewer guests could enjoy his concoction-
Perhaps larger portions for the fifteen?
I found the little slip of paper with this recipe in some of my mother’s recipes.
I don’t recall my mother ever making any potato salad
Do you have recipes on little slips of paper? Sometimes they are stuffed in a cookbook.
I don’t know who Elmer Newkirk is but he must have typed out his recipe snd shared it. Have you ever heard of putting a peeled apple in potato salad?
My mom had scraps of paper with recipes on them as well as recipes she cut or tore out of magazines. German potato salad often has apples in it. Mom`s potato salad was so good but she made her own dressing.
I’m glad to know the origin of the addition of apples, Darlene. One time my sister went through recipes I’d cut out from magazines and the newspaper. She said “a little heavy on the desserts!”
Apples I’ve never tried in potato salad but I have used pineapple. It’s delicious.
Interesting! Growing up my mom didn’t put apples in potato salad, but she did add them to tuna salad (along with hard boiled eggs, celery, and walnuts). It sounds bizarre, but I remember enjoying it as a kid.
That does sound interesting.
My sister (gcr) makes the BEST potato salad. No apples. dc
I believe it!
Never heard of apples in potato salad, sounds interesting.
Growing up, my mom added apples (and hard boiled eggs, celery, and walnuts) to tuna salad. I really liked it as a kid; I wonder if I would like it now as an adult….
