Jersey Style Potato Salad Recipes

POTATO SALAD "NEW JERSEY" STYLE

JERSEY-STYLE POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Boil potatoes with skins on until cooked through, but not mushy (test with a knife). When finished, place potatoes in cold water bath for about an hour.
• Peel potatoes, slice into desired style (some like cubes, I like them sliced), and place in a bowl. Add chopped onion.
• Make brine by mixing water, vinegar, sugar and salt in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil. Pour the brine over the potato/onion mixture and refrigerate for one hour.
• Thoroughly drain potato/onion mixture in a strainer and then place back in a bowl. Add mayonnaise as needed until a desired consistency is reached. Taste, adding salt and/or pepper (celery, eggs, etc) as needed. Chill for several hours or overnight.

OLD FASHIONED POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool, peel and chop.
• Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil; cover, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop.
• In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, eggs, celery, onion, relish, garlic salt, celery salt, mustard, pepper and mayonnaise. Mix together well and refrigerate until chilled.

SAUSAGE, PEPPERS, ONIONS, AND POTATO BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the sausage until browned. Transfer the cooked sausage to a large baking dish.
• Pour 1/4 cup of olive oil into the skillet, and cook the potatoes, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 10 minutes. Place the potatoes into the baking dish, leaving some oil in the skillet.
• Cook and stir the green and red peppers and onions in the hot skillet until they are beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the vegetables to the baking dish.
• Pour wine and chicken stock over the vegetables and sausage, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Gently stir the sausage, potatoes, and vegetables together.
• Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot.
