This recipe needs green onions, raddish, red, yellow and green sweet peppers, take out the dill and add some sweet pickle juice and the potatoes should be diced in half inch cubes before cooking. Now you have the best potatoe salad ever.

Potatoes should be sliced, salad definitely needs onions. A few anchovies enhance the taste dramatically. A sprinkle of flat leave parsley could be added.

I agree totally with mizjmassie!! This recipe is off! The potato amount is wrong. I only use sweet pickle relish, and I use green, red bell pepper, diced carrots, celery, and a dash of celery seeds. You must add yellow mustard, thicky, heavy mayonaise, onions, & boiled crumbled eggs. The key is to NEVER rinsed your cooked, cubed potatoes.

I think the main problem with this recipe is the amount of potatoes if off. However, I think if you cook maybe 2-3 lbs you may be okay. However, I still think it's too plain. No mustard, no bell pepper or celery or onion (like green. Lastly, dill pickle relish is okay, but too bitter for my pallete. I prefer sweet pickle relish. There are just far more better recipes out there. There is salt in this recipe even though so many reviewers said that there wasn't. I used seasoned salt and doctored this recipe by changing everything.

WOW, about time I saw a place not use onions and such! a real russet potato (notice there is no E, has such great flavor, there need not much else to add especially when this should be a side dish to a main flavored meal.

This recipe is just plain wrong in every aspect, ie ratios, type of potato, amount of dressing etc.

This is a FABULOUS basic recipe which is delish just the way it is.. or can very easily be added to. I make this all the time for big events and have had many ask for containers to bring it home! I usually split it into two. One I keep the recipe just as is.. the second I doctor a bit for those who are more adventurous in their tater salad needs. (hint..hint: crispy fry some bacon and mix it in with a few tablespoons of the bacon fat.. OMG.. what's not to love??
