    Title: Authentic German Potato Salad

    In terms of ingredients and measures, this looks similar to the
    following recipe.

    I took a look and it's close - but, no cigar. Bv)=

    I have six "German" tater salad recipes in my collection - all similar
    but not identical. But it's all of the basics that make them similar
    and the individual "tartng up" that make them unique.

    Sadly, I don't have my Grandmother's recipe. Hers was close to all of
    the ones I have on file - but she claimed it wasd "Pennsylvania Dutch"
    And considering that her forebears were from the southern Virginia and
    northern North Carolina region - probably some touches from that style
    as well. My memory tells me it was excellent.

    What was the hack to make mayo have the same flavour
    profile as miracle wimp again? I thought it was sugar, but
    there is already sugar in this one.

    Just upping miracle wimp a notch. Shudder and look away.
