Hellmann’s Potato Salad (Original Recipe)
First up, let’s take a look at what we need to work our potato magic. Grab your ingredients and prepare for some culinary fun!
Ingredients
- 2 pounds of potatoes (Yukon Gold, if you’re feeling fancy)
- 1 cup Hellmann’s mayonnaise (enough to make it creamy!)
- 2 tablespoons vinegar (a splash of zing!)
- 1 tablespoon mustard (because why not?)
- 1 medium onion, chopped (crying is totally optional)
- 1 cup celery, diced (for that crunch factor)
- 2-3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped (egg-cellent addition)
- Salt and pepper to taste (everyone loves a little seasoning)
- Optional: Paprika for that fancy finishing touch
Instructions
- Start by washing your potatoes like they just came from a spa day! Peel them if you’re feeling adventurous, or keep the skin on if you like a little rustic charm.
- Cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks, then boil them in a big pot of salty water until they are fork-tender (about 10-15 minutes). Drain and let them cool while resisting the urge to nibble on them.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the Hellmann’s mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. This is the creamy goodness we’ve been dreaming about!
- Add the cooled potatoes to the creamy concoction along with the onion, celery, and eggs. Gently fold everything together like you’re tucking a puppy into a blanket.
- Give it a taste and adjust seasoning as necessary. This is your masterpiece after all!
- Transfer your potato salad to a serving bowl, and sprinkle a little paprika on top if you want to impress your friends and family. Voilà!
- Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving – if you can wait that long!
And there you have it, folks! A classic Hellmann’s Potato Salad that’s sure to be a hit at any gathering. Serve it up alongside burgers, hot dogs, or just devour it on its own while watching your favorite show. Delicious?
