2 pounds russet potatoes


1 cup mayonnaise


4 teaspoons sweet pickle relish


4 teaspoons white sugar


2 teaspoons chopped white onion


2 teaspoons prepared mustard


1 teaspoon white wine vinegar


1 tablespoon minced celery


1 teaspoon minced pimento


1/2 teaspoon shredded carrot


1/4 teaspoon dried parsley


1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper


salt to taste











DIRECTIONS


Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool and chop.


In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, mayonnaise, sweet pickle relish, sugar, onion, mustard, vinegar, celery, pimentos, carrot, parsley, pepper and salt. Mix well, chill and serve.
Yes I do! Passed down from my grandmother. It is a little unconventional, and we call it Rainbow potato salad. Cut up a bunch of Yukon gold potatos and boil in a large pot. Also cut up half a turnip, maybe 5 parsnips and 5 carrots and a few sweet potatoes and boil in a smaller pot. While cooking, cut up a few stalks of celery very finely and dice an onion very finely. Put these into a large rubbermaid plastic box or storage container (or whatever is big enough) and lots and lots of poppy seeds, probably a whole bag. When the potatoes and other roots are done, mix them into the tub with 1-2 jars of your favorite mayonaise ans some salt. Garnish with some rings of purple cabbage.
