Four Food on Friday #37
Written by Lisa on July 11, 2008 – 1:00 am -Okay, I have forgotten to do this for several weeks now, but I am going to try to get back into the groove of doing these again. If you want to join, check out Fun, Crafts, and Recipes.
#1. Cake. Buttercream, whipped cream or ice cream? I like all cake. Since I am lactose intolerant, I prefer not to eat ice cream cake even though I do like it.
#2. When entertaining do you use real, paper, plastic or styrofoam dishes? If we are having a big party, plastic and styrofoam. If its just immediate family, real because I have a dish washer.
#3. When hosting a party do you cook, have it catered or go to a restaurant? Cook.
#4. Share a recipe that you frequently serve when having a party.
Potato Salad – 10 lbs
10 lbs. potatoes
3 – 4 hard-boiled eggs

Heya, my husband and I went to culinary arts school. If you would like either of us to make a guest post, let me know. I would leave my email address here, but there are a ton of spammers on the net just waiting to eat my email address alive. You can get ahold of me by the contact form on my site:

I never heard of putting sugar in potato salad. I use Miracle Whip though so that probably is sweeter than using Mayonnaise.

Anything I need to know if I want to increase the amount of eggs?
Thanks for playing FFOF.
Stumbled.

I’ve never put eggs in my potato salad but now that you mentioned it, I might give it a try and see if my kids like it

My mom is known for her potato salad, and her recipe is very similar to yours!

I keep thinking that’s sooo much potatoes but then I realized that I usually buy 5lb bags…not that much really.

I use Miracle Whip too with this recipe. I am not sure why you add the sugar — its my moms recipe.

I don’t see there being an issue to increase the egg amount.

This is my mom’s recipe too!

The 10lbs works best for a party. I cut this in half for when I am making it just for us.
