Description
Latvian potato salad. This is a German- and Russian-inspired recipe, but I think it tastes better than either!
 * Serves 6.

Potato salad

 * 6 potatoes
 * 6 eggs
 * 6 pickles (optional)
 * 6 pickled beets, or equivalent in sliced pickled beets (optional)
 * 1 apple (optional)

Salad dressing

 * 3 large dollops of mayonnaise (Hellman's, if possible)
 * 1 – 2 large dollops of sour cream
 * 1 – 3 tsp mustard
 * 1 – 3 tsp vinegar
 * ¼ – ½ tsp salt
 * ¼ tsp pepper

Directions

 * 1) Boil potatoes until soft (but not until they are falling apart).

 * 3) Remove skins from potatoes, and shells from eggs.
 * 4) Dice into fairly large chunks (about ½ inch in diameter).
 * 5) Dice optional ingredients into smaller pieces.
 * 6) Put all diced ingredients into a very large bowl.

Salad dressing

 * 1) Start with smaller amounts, and keep adding sour cream, vinegar, mustard, etc.
 * 2) Until it tastes good to you.
 * 3) The salad dressing should taste somewhat salty and tart.
