How to make Chunky Potato Salad

Scrub the potato clean, then peel (if desired) and dice into large bite-sized cubes.

Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil and add the potatoes and the egg, uncracked.

Boil the potatoes and egg for about 12 minutes. Remove the egg to a small dish. Then, drain the potatoes. Place the potatoes and egg in the refrigerator to cool for 10-30 minutes.

Pro Tip

Resting a wooden spoon on top of boiling water will help prevent the water from boiling over and making a mess.

If using the bacon, heat a non-stick skillet on medium heat and cook the bacon until crisp. Drain the bacon on a paper towel and let it cool, then crumble it.

On a cutting board, dice the onion, celery, hard-boiled egg, and pickles.

In a bowl, whisk the mayo, seasoned salt, and pepper.

Toss the mayo mixture together with the potatoes, egg, celery, onion, and pickles.

Stir in the bacon and serve or chill until ready to serve.

Notes

Storage Instructions

• Store potato salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. Do not leave it at room temperature for more than two hours (one hour if above 90°F) to prevent bacterial growth. For the best quality, avoid freezing it, as the texture of mayonnaise and potatoes can become watery and grainy when thawed.
