Wow, that’s a lot of sugar. Is it a misprint/typo? OR is this a super sweet potato salad. I’d be afraid to try it as written.The dressing reminds me of the one I make for a broccoli salad, only with much less sugar..Reply
No typo, it is supposed to be sweeter than most potato salads. If you cut the sugar down, it becomes more of a German style, which is good as well.Reply
Thank you for the quick reply. I’m absolutely going to have to try this. It’s intriguing. I’ll let you know how it turns out. Maybe over the weekend.Reply
Oh, by the way. I just reread the ingredients and see it uses salad dressing (miracle whip I presume) instead of mayo. I never buy miracle whip. Would mayo be OK to substitute? If not I’ll get a small jar.Reply
Mayo would be fine. The flavor will be a bit different with the missing seasonings, but I’m sure it will still be delicious.Reply
