The Angry Chef: Potato Salad

Yup. High-boiling eggs gives you nasty, sulfurous yolks. That’s a worse culinary crime than using Miracle Whip.

Yes. Saw that episode, tried it, and it is delicious. Except for the olive oil.

Cripes, Tyler Florence would pour “a little olive oil” on chocolate chip brownies!

Proper Potato Salad

Potatoes (duh!) - can be Red or Yukon Gold, peeled, chunked and boiled
Eggs - hard-boiled and chunked
Celery - diced
Pickles - diced
Red Onions - diced

Bound together by Miracle Whip & yellow mustard and seasoned with salt, red pepper flakes and sprinkled with paprika.

Satan was kicked out of Paradise for using mayo in his potato salad.

That’s only “proper” if you desire those who eat of said salad to be choking down each forkful (or feeding it to the dog).

You do and I’ll call the SPCAES!(1)

It’s an interesting idea, but I doubt I’ll look at his recipes if he uses Miracle Whip. Blech!

Nobody made ptato salad like my mom. My mom’s potato salad was the best. Full stop.

She used Miracle Whip. No radishes. Yellow Mustard, diced celery, chopped onion. Mustard seeds soaked in white vinegar.

This should be made into a Sticky. It would save a lot of arguments.

Who am I kidding? Around here? It would just start more debates about what the definition of a “mom” is, and is boiling potatoes abusive to hydrophobes.

I’m planning the revolt already.

My wife’s grandma makes her potato salad w/ radishes in it. I’d never had it that way before, but I really liked the flavor it brought to the dish.

So I’m on board with the radishes. Miracle Whip, not so much.

Jesus Christ did in fact invent Miracle Whip. Thanks for asking.

Oooh, I’m telling Skald! You too carnivorousplant.

Me, too, what?

Oh, you meant a revolt against Tamerlane. Carry on then. suspicious glance

You watch your ass.:dubious:

You’re all dangerously insane. I’m going to MTCicero’s for potato salad, you can all rub your tubers in permitted emulsifiers with** Autolycus**, or whatever it is you crazy kids do.

Oh stop it; you’re turning me on.

:smiley:
Well, I myself would feed Miracle Whip to your cats.

Hello, SPCAES?
o-u-r-y-capital L.
No, I don’t know why the hell the L is caps.
Hello?
Hello?

I’ve never in my life boiled an egg that came out with a green, sulfurous yolk, so I must have misdescribed how I boil eggs.

In fact, I honestly wasn’t even aware that could happen. I’ve never seen a boiled egg with a yolk any color other than a pleasant yellow.

So that’s why all those Irish fled to the U.S.!

You fucking douches.

My mom makes the best potato salad in the world, and it is a lot like the Angry Chef’s. It includes boiled red potatoes, Miracle Whip, French’s yellow mustard, onions (who gives a shit what kind; use whatever is available fresh out of the garden), sweet pickle relish and a bit of juice, diced hard-boiled eggs, celery salt, paprika, and some other stuff that I will probably have to pry out of her cold, dead, hands.

Radishes sound good, in moderation, if diced fine.

My only disagreement with the Angry Chef is that red potato skins are OK - provided that they stick to the potato and don’t swim around in the potato salad like some kind of demented jellyfish.

You Miracle Whip haters can go to hell.
