Lucilles potato salad

I was never a fan of potato salad until I tried my grandmother Lucille’s, and I’ve heard other folks say the same thing. This is a good old-fashioned recipe that’s as Southern as the day is long. Note from Grandmother Lucille: Potato salad varies in how thick it turns out. If it is too thick after mixing, you can add a little pickle juice or extra mayonnaise to make it the right consistency for your taste.

3 cups peeled, cubed, and cooked potatoes

3 eggs, hard-boiled and chopped

½ cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons yellow mustard

One 4-ounce jar diced pimento, drained

1/3 cup sweet relish or diced sweet pickles

¼ cup finely diced onion

Salt and pepper to taste

• In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients and stir well. Serve warm or refrigerate and serve cold.
