What did you cook tonight?

[LMD_Ermitano]

It’s (i.e., Martin’s version of potato salad) called “German potato salad” here in Manila as well. What is known as “potato salad” here is the American version - surely because of the American influence post WW2, after Japanese occupation.

potatoes originated in the new world

I’m a big fan of potatoes and totally anti bad mayo.

I wish it was easier to procure some of those original New World potatoes. Occasionally and seasonally I was able to get some of these from the Andes when I was living in Argentina.

You can grow them.

Mayonnaise is a food group here. Guests request my Wife’s potato salad as a pre-requisite to attending.

Mayo has its merits, no doubt. BUT a potato salad needs only broth, oil, vinegar etc.

Didn‘t we invent the potato salad?!?!

@Alan_Rath

Well, since potatoes originated in the new world, I think we should have some say as to how potato salad should be prepared

Having said that, I am not a mayo guy, so I’m with you all the way. I love what we here call “german potato salad”. But I am fine with some sliced egg, as well as red onion in mine.

Me neither Alan-I prefer the tangy zip of miracle whip!

The soil is a little too compact in my current neck of the woods

That is just one reason why there are potato grow bags, which work quite nicely in my experience.

I recently had a connecting flight with ANA and can attest to mayo in potato salad, at least with airline dining, and I dare to say it was really good (I didn’t eat the random full slice of salami on top). Lightly dressed, and identical/perfect 1/4” cubes of potatoes, looked like a little whole grain mustard, too. They are an 11/10 in every aspect of an airline vs United. I thought that kind of economy class attention to detail (food, service, cleanliness, legroom etc) was all but dead.

Miracle whip is an abomination.

[ClarkstonMark]

Chilean sea bass with chile, peppers, tomato and paprika. The preparation, while Italian, strongly reminded me of Hungarian ghoulash. Side of chanterelles mushrooms, which were sauteed before bathing in a white wine/shallot/butter/thyme sauce.

Made this wild rice soup again last week. Adapted it a bit for my diverticulitis flareup (eliminated the kale) and also for what I had on hand/flavor (used homemade duck stock instead of chicken stock; added some vegetables to the duck stock, too). I this recipe! Thanks again for sharing, @Patrick_Taylor .
