Just like a Mardi Gras party, this Creole Potato Salad has everything a circus should have. Mardi Gras, also known as “Fat Tuesday” represents the feast or the last night of eating rich, fatty and oily foods before the ritual fasting of the Lenten season.
With a range of symbolic colors representing power, faith, strength and justice, this special event is universally recognized, remembered and enjoyed!
To make Creole Potato Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large pot, cover 3 pounds of cut potatoes, 1 tablespoon crab boil and a few pinches of salt in water, reaching about 1-inch above the potatoes. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until fork tender. Remove potatoes and drain excess liquid.
Toss boiled potatoes with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and ¾ teaspoon of Creole seasoning until coated.
In a small mixing bowl, mix ⅓ cup mayonnaise, ⅓ cup sour cream, ⅓ cup Creole mustard and 1 teaspoon sugar until well combined.
Pour over the potatoes and toss to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add 1 finely chopped celery stalk, 3 chopped hard-boiled eggs, 3 sliced green onions, and 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley. Toss to combine everything.
Garnish with a few extra sprinkles of Creole seasoning and refrigerate until ready to serve.
