stories Today we return to this time and begin with a dish It was always on the table at every meeting whether big or small 1 Potato Salad Potato salad was once an essential dish at family celebrations Grill parties or simple meals together after work The potatoes were cooked just right not too soft and not too hard and then mixed with a light creamy sauce which created a cool nutty and pleasant feeling from the first bite Every family was convinced that they had the best recipe From the type of potato cutting to the timing of adding the sauce From the secret ingredient that was only used for special occasions Some liked the mild creaminess others remembered best a slight acidity The one on the tip of the tongue What was special was that this dish tasted better the longer it sat
