Mustard Potato Salad is very similar to regular potato salad, but with tang and zing from yellow mustard. Adding a vegetable medley consisting of peas, beans, corn, and carrots gives the salad more texture and flavour. Update your regular salad with a new flavour profile!
6-8mediumpotatoes,white flesh, peeled and roughly chopped
1/4cupprepared yellow mustard
½cupmayonnaise
2tablespoonssugar
15ouncescanned mixed vegetables,drained
1/2teaspoonsalt
Instructions
Add the chopped potatoes and salt to a large pot and cover the potatoes with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
Using a hand-held potato masher, or a potato ricer, mash the potatoes leaving no lumps.
Add all of the other ingredients, and using a large spoon, vigorously mix all of the ingredients together.
Taste for seasoning and sweetness and adjust accordingly.
Transfer to a glass bowl with a tight fitting lid. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Notes
When buying the canned mixed vegetables, I encourage you to stay away from canned peas and carrots - it just will not taste the way it is meant to be. Try to find canned vegetable medley which consists of corn, green peas, carrots, green beans, etc. Canned vegetables might seem odd to some, but I have tried to make this potato salad with bagged frozen veggies and the taste is off.
