How to make potato salad with the taste of western restaurant?
Authentic western-style potato salad

Main ingredients:

Potatoes, carrots, eggs, celery or cucumber, ham, onions, Cupid yolk salad dressing.

Accessories: white pepper, chopped black pepper, white vinegar, salt?

Exercise:

1. Wash potatoes, carrots and celery first. Steam potatoes in a pot.

2. Eggs and carrots are put in almost at the same time, because they are cooked quickly, so they can be put in later, which tastes good, otherwise the eggs will be hard and the carrots will be too soft. Steam until you can easily pierce potatoes with chopsticks. Try the maturity of carrots in the same way.

3. In the process of steaming potatoes, celery or cucumber can be diced. Leaves can also be chopped together, and if ham is put, it is also cut into pieces. Onions should be cut into small pieces, not diced. Peel and dice potatoes after steaming, not too small, 1.5 cm to 2 cm in size. Peel carrots and dice them. Peel and dice the eggs.

4. Put the salad dressing into the cut potatoes and stir well. Add diced eggs and carrots, diced celery or cucumber, pepper, diced ham and chopped green onion (this step can be ignored) and stir well.

5, finally add white vinegar, in order to taste. Add salt, be sure not to be salty, just measure it yourself.

6. Finally, add chopped black pepper (freshly ground, not bought black pepper)

7. Cool and put in the refrigerator. It tasted better the next day.

Tip: If you don't have egg yolk salad dressing, you can make it yourself. In the past, western chefs cooked their own food. They use an egg yolk (egg white is not needed, but it can be steamed and chopped into salad), add olive oil or salad oil drop by drop (not peanut oil, which smells delicious), and keep stirring until it becomes thick sauce, then add pepper, a little white vinegar and salt, and stir again. The oil must be put drop by drop, otherwise it will leak easily and become a sauce. If you fail, it is ok to make do with the taste. This potato salad is very authentic. You can also add some milk. Be careful not to muddy the potatoes. Too thin to look good. Someone added diced apples and corn kernels to it, which belongs to the category of free play, but it lost its original flavor.
