Steps:

• Combine brine ingredients and boil for 5 minutes. Peel potatoes and slice thin. Pour hot brine over them. Let them marinate for 24 hours. Drain in colander but do not drain dry. Add mayonnaise, enough to make it as creamy as you like. It is better to make it the day before, or even 2 days before. For Dressing: Mix well and refrigerate while making the rest of the salad. For Salad: Mix potatoes, onions in bowl. Drain pimientos well and then put on a paper towel so that the salad doesn't turn pink. Add eggs. Mix dressing gently with all the above stuff and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

JOHN'S NEW YORK DELI-STYLE POTATO SALAD RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a big pot of water. Turn up the heat to high! Cook them to perfection in boiling water. Don't over cook (they will be too mushy). Don't under cook. I can't give you an exact time but start checking after 20 minutes. You just need to use your fork and your cooking instincts. Peeling: You can peel them before boiling but it's easier to pull off the skins after cooking. Tip : Let them cool, first! After cooking, drain well and let them cool down. After a spell, chill in the fridge until they are cold. During the cooling off period grate ½ cup of carrots and ¼ cup of minced curly parsley. Take the cool potatoes and slice them thin. (About a quarter of an inch or so) Place sliced potatoes in a giant mixing bowl and add the mayo, white vinegar, sugar, salt, carrots and parley too. Gently mix it up with a big 'ole spoon. Adjust to taste. Chill, may be eaten it within 3 days preparing.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot, and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook until soft when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 30 minutes. Drain, and allow to cool slightly. Peel potatoes, and slice into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Combine potatoes, onion, water, vinegar, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Toss gently between two large bowls, trying not to break up potato slices. Let stand for 10 minutes. Add mayonnaise; mix gently between two large bowls until well combined and creamy. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours; the mixture will thicken as it stands. Garnish with parsley and/or sliced hard-boiled eggs, if desired.
