Here is another Marcia Adams Amish recipe. It is yummy!

Grandmother Yoder's Potato Salad with Sweet and Sour Boiled Dressing

Dressing
3 eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
1 ? tsp prepared mustard
1/3 cup coarsely chopped sweet pickles
3/4 cup mayonnaise (I used Dukes)s)
In a medium, heavy saucepan, beat the eggs, then whisk in the sugar, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Heat and whisk over medium low heat (it will burn easily so watch it carefully) until thick, 2 or 3 minutes. The mixture will resemble a roux, remove from the heat and cool for 10 minutes. Stir in the mustard, sweet pickles, and mayonnaise. Cool, cover and refrigerate until needed.

Salad
4-5 medium potatoes, peeled and halved
2 tsp cider vinegar
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1/4 cup minced onion
1/2 tsp celery seeds
2 hard-cooked eggs, chopped

Combine the potatoes and vinegar in a saucepan with water to cover. (Adding vinegar to the potato cooking water keeps the potatoes firm.) Bring to a boil, cover, then simmer until tender 20;-25 minutes. Drain, cook, and cut into 3/4-inch cubes and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add the rest of the salad ingredients and toss. Stir in the dressing gently, adjust the seasonings and serve immediately or refrigerate until serving time.

This is well worth the time it takes!
