Notes from our test kitchen; this recipe was tested and developed using both mayonnaise and salad dressing, for the best flavor I recommend to use both, you may omit the ham is desired, plan ahead there is a 4 hour chilling time

Servings 8

Ingredients:

3 pounds small red potatoes, peeled but leave whole do not slice
1/4 cup white white vinegar plus 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
5 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and yolks separated to add in with the dressing
6 green onions, chopped
1 celery rib, diced
3 cups chopped cooked ham
6-8 sweet small gherkin pickles, finely chopped (optional, if using hand-squeeze out any excess moisture from the pickles before adding to the salad)
freshly ground black pepper

DRESSING:

1/2 cup Hellman’s mayonnaise
1/2 cup Miracle Whip salad dressing
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon seasoned salt (can use white salt)

Instructions:

Cook the potatoes whole, do not slice in boiling water with 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar until just fork-tender.

Remove the cooked potatoes with a slotted spoon and place into a large bowl; immediately sprinkle with 1/4 cup white wine vinegar; cool at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Slice the potatoes into desired size cubes and place back into the bowl, along with chopped egg whites, celery, cooked cubed ham and pickles, if using; toss to coat.

For the the dressing; in a small bowl using a fork finely mince the egg yolks.

In a medium bowl combine theĀ  mayonnaise, salad dressing, sour cream, garlic powder, Dijon mustard, seasoned salt and black pepper; add in the minced egg yolk and mix well to combine (there will be some small lumps, not to worry that is fine!).

Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and using a spatula gently combine all ingredients together.

Season with black pepper and more seasoned salt.

Cover and refrigerate for minimum 4 or more hours before serving.
