This recipe was sent to me by an Amish woman from the Ronks, Pennsylvania area. This is a potato salad with a classic Pennsylvania Dutch culinary influence. The apple cider vinegar and yellow mustard are tell-tale signs.
| 6 medium white potatoes with skin |
| 1 small onion, finely chopped |
| 1 cup chopped celery |
| 1 cup chopped carrots |
| 1 teaspoon celery seed |
| 4 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and chopped |
| 2 eggs, beaten |
| 3/4 cup white sugar |
| 1 teaspoon cornstarch |
| 1/2 teaspoon salt |
| 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar |
| 1/2 cup milk |
| 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard |
| 3 tablespoons butter |
| 1 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing |
1) Place the potatoes into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover.
2) Bring to a boil, and cook for about 20 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain, and set aside to cool.
3) While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together 2 eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan.
4) Stir in the vinegar, milk, and mustard. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until thickened, about 10 minutes.
5) Remove from heat, and stir in the butter.
6) Refrigerate until cool, then stir in the mayonnaise.
7) Peel the potatoes if desired, and cut into medium diced pieces.
8) Place in a large bowl, and toss with the onion, celery, carrots, celery seed, and hard-cooked eggs.
9) Gently fold in the dressing.
10) Refrigerate until serving, tastes best after a day of chilling which allows the flavors to meld.
