Smith Family Potato Salad

I recently attended a bridal shower for my niece.  There was homemade potato salad there and it was wonderful.  Thankfully, her mother in law was willing to share the recipe, and now I share it with you.  If you are not a fan of egg, this is not for you.  Even without the egg on top, it has an egg flavor.

The recipe indicates that she used Hellman's mayonnaise, I used Dukes.  Still wonderful, so use what you prefer.  Type of mustard is not specified, I used horseradish mustard.

2 Large Eggs

1 Tbl Mustard

2 Tbl Flour

6 Tbl Sugar

3/4 Cup Water

1/4 Cup Vinegar (I used Apple Cider Vinegar)

1 Tsp Salt

2 Cups Mayonnaise

5 - 6 Large Potatoes Cut, Cooked and Cooled

-----OR-----

4 Cups (Dry Measure) macaroni - Cooked

-----OR-----

A mix of the above measurement of potato and macaroni.

Blend the mustard and eggs in a small pan.  

Add flour, sugar, water, vinegar and salt.  

Cook until smooth and cool completely.  Add mayonnaise.

Add macaroni, potatoes - whatever you choose.

If desired, add 5 hard boiled eggs on top.
