5 large potatoes cooked in salted water

For the dressing

1.5 cup good mayo

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon sweet relish

2 garlic cloves shredded

¼ teaspoon celery salt

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

• Peel and chop the potatoes in to 1 to 2 inch cubes
• Boil the potato in salted water. The water should taste salty, if you boil the potatoes in water that is fresh the potato salad will be bland
• Cook until soft and just starting to break apart
• Strain and rinse in cool water, completely cool the potatoes. Pop the bowl in a freezer for 10 minutes, that usually does the trick
• In a bowl combine all the ingredients for the dressing
• Stir the cold potatoes and mix thoroughly slightly mashing while mixing
• You want to have a mix of whole pieces and mashed
• Place in the refrigerator to set for at least an hour, overnight is best
• Serve cold
