Title: John Geckles' Amazing Blazing Potato Salad
Categories: Tnt, Salads, Potato, Bacon, Chilies
Yield: 4 Servings
3 lb New potatoes; boiled until
- tender
4 Ribs celery; sliced
1 lg Red onion; fine diced
8 sl Bacon; cooked crisp, diced
3 cl Garlic; minced
1/2 c Mayonnaise
1 ts Salt
3 ts Chilli spice mix
1/4 c Sugar
1 ts Minced chipotle pepper
1/3 c Red wine vinegar
Salt & pepper
Cool the potatoes until they are comfortable to handle.
Chop them into chunks and place them in a bowl. In another
bowl place the remaining ingredients excluding salt and
pepper. Whisk well. Add dressing to potatoes and mix.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Notes: Their restaurant does not use freshly prepared
mayonnaise for obvious health reasons. Tanya said that she
would make an exception and serve us freshly prepared
mayonnaise in one of the upcoming classes in order for us
to experience it. In this recipe they used Hellmann's real
mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip Salad Dressing). She spoke of
the health hazards of preparing a traditional potato salad
with fresh mayonnaise and taking it on a picnic. If you do
so, be sure to submerge the salad in a large quantity of
ice. Justin created this potato salad one weekend when the
ingredients were limited. He prefers to bake the bacon
rather than frying it. He recommends that you strive for a
balance of the acidity from the vinegar, the sweetness
from the sugar and the spice of the chili powder and
chipotle pepper. Although it was served to us chilled, he
prefers that it be served at room temperature. The salad
had an unfamiliar color that was similar to butterscotch
but a little heavier in orange hue. I've had potato salads
made with mustard and sweet pickles or sweet pickle relish
and they are boring in comparison to this. I can't wait to
fix this in my kitchen and hope it turns out as well as
the potato salad we were served. I may never fix any other
potato salad again.
