It’s time you worthless scumbags learned how to make a proper potato salad, so listen the hell up.
I fucking <3 The Angry Chef.
Miracle Whip doesn’t belong in potato salad. It doesn’t belong in anything. I wouldn’t feed it to my cats, but then again, they wouldn’t eat it because they have good taste.
Also, radishes in potato salad? That’s. . . . . . different.
BTW, a lot of Dijon mustard comes from Dijon, France. “Not even French,” indeed. I’d say that The Angry Chef is not even a chef.
I don’t even cook, and yet I loved this. Keep 'em comin!
With all due respect, most of his recipe is good, except:
Use mayonnaise. Miracle Whip might be useful as a sexual lubricant, but nothing else.
No radishes.
Diced onion, in addition to the scallions.
Diced celery, in addition to celery seed.
A little chopped parsley.
A little dill.
Carrot shavings (just enough for color).
This part is completely correct. Except that I don’t want gross potato skins in ANY dish, not just potato salad.
Also, for those who missed it the first time around: Potato salad | Boing Boing
He’s nuts. No fucking radishes, ever. It also should use red onions, not green. But he’s right about the Miracle Whip. Mayonnaise is Satan’s semen.
It’s not even good for that, the sugar in it will lead to a bad yeast infection.
I was raised in a Miracle Whip home. The moment I was able to buy my own groceries, I began to buy and appreciate mayonnaise. Now I make my own. I will never again let Miracle Whip past my lips.
For kicks, my family’s potato salad recipe:
Peeled potatoes, dammit
Hard boiled eggs
Finely diced de-stringed celery
Finely diced red and white onion
1 tablespoon good mustard for every 3 potatoes
Celery salt
As much mayonnaise as needed to bind it all nicely
Paprika on top to taste
Cannot beat this with a stick.
I can appreciate the artistry of the angry rant, without agreeing that he has a clue about cooking.
Count me in the crowd that says you don’t use miracle whip for anything.
I love the comment
“Do you want to give people Potato AIDS” 
I like both mayo and miracle whip, it depends what you’re in the mood for.
Potato AIDS LOL
I appear to be the only person on the planet who doesn’t give a rat’s ass about Miracle Whip vs Mayonnaise. I can tell the difference. I kind of like the Tangy Zip in my potato salad, but my ex husband was mayonnaise all the the way and gallons of that potato salad would disappear. Current beau is a Mircle Man so that is what I buy (I am condiment co dependant) but HE doesn’t eat potato salad. My son however inhales the stuff. He must get it from the bio-dad. (Unrelated rant—That and body type are ALL he got fron his biodad… oh and his right big toe… weird.)
But Ricks recipe rocks and he should have his name written in the Book of Life for this public service. Unless, of course, he doesn’t want that.
Miracle Whip is just mayo-like substance with sugar and vinegar. Sure, you could use Mayo, but it’s going to be very dull unless you also add sugar and vinegar, and…why bother? The kind folks at Miracle Whip have already figured out the perfect proportions of each, and it’s much easier to open one jar.
I love mayo. I make homemade mayo. But Miracle Whip has its place, too.
And…radishes? Really? Sounds intriguing. I’ll give it a shot.
My old roommate (who is about as Southern as Southern gets) gives me a hard time about my take on the potato salad (in which I put mayo, eggs, cooked veggies, apples, and a bit of pepper on top): “That’s not potato salad! That’s…stuff! With potatoes in it!”
There’s no pickles. Really, there oughta be pickles.
My mom’s potato salad is better than his. Yes, I said it.
I disagree intensely with his insistence on using the godawful Miracle Whip instead of the sublime mayonnaise.
Seconded.
Yeeahh…I was entirely on board with RickJay’s anti-bechamel lasagna stance, but Miracle Whip is simply repulsive. I guess I won’t ban it when I inevitably become the benevolent God-King of this planet, because of the benevolence and all ( I’ll offer choices! At least two! ), but I really should.
That looks lovely, but I reckon a little too frou-frou for the Angry Chef with the capers and the Dijon mustard. 
Yeah, I just can’t get onboard with the Miracle Whip. Shit’s too sweet. I could take a very light smear of it on a sandwich, but not a whole gob of it in potato salad. But I guess it’s what you grew up with. My Polish immigrant parents were not fond of the Whip. Not sure what the problem with potato skins is, either. And radishes? 
I suppose I should try it before I knock it.
Points for style, though.
Blork. Wrong. The way to make potato salad, and I say this with all the native authority of Californian advising me how to pull a warm frothy pint, is thus:
New potatoes, halved, skin on
Bit of horseradish
Bit of wholegrain mustard
Diced red onion
Diced spring onion
Finely diced capers
Finely diced cornichons
Flat leaf parsley
Salt & pepper
Hard-boiled - not boiled to powder, you peasant, like a niçoise salad boil - eggs, if you can be bothered.
*Make your own flipping mayonnaise *
(Also, is Miracle Whip anything like Salad Cream? Jesus Christ).
Edit: Actually, that’s pretty much it, MTCicero! Very much the same idea - capers and mustard and that. STICK IT IN MY BEAK. Gotta make your own mayonnaise, though. Frou-frou, but DELICIOUS.
The big miss here is that he says to hard boil those eggs really hard - 12 minutes at a high boil. That’s what gives you green yolks. Eggs need to be coddled into hard-boiledness.
