This looks great thanks for sharing (as I print out the recipe)

It really is spectacular, richinlbrg. I got the basic recipe from my sister, who got it from someone, etc. I made it a dozen times and finally settled on the ingredients and proportions.

Looks great, @mosca.

I'm going to give it a shot!

In honor of the first nice spring weekend here in NE PA!


3lbs redskin potatoes, quartered and boiled until soft (You can use fingerlings, Yukons, baby, anything but baking potatoes)
4 stalks celery, thinly chopped
2 bunches of scallions, cleaned and chopped except for the dark green ends (about halfway up)
a handful of parsley, chopped
2 hard boiled eggs, chopped. I made 3, but one fell off the table and the dog got it. 2 is fine. But 3 would also work.
salt and pepper to taste (I used about 1 T of each, sea salt and cracked black peppercorns)
about 2/3 cup white balsamic vinegar
about 2/3 cup olive oil

optional: a couple slices of cooked bacon, crumbled

If you've made potato salad before you know what to do. I cut most of the potatoes but also mash a few, for texture. Refrigerate for about an hour for the flavors to meld, then serve slightly warm. Awesome the next day.
