CV's Potato Salad... with BACON!

5 lbs red potatoes. chopped into bite-size pieces (I recommend you leave the skin on. The extra fibre and color don't hurt)
1 500g pack of BACON!
1 850 ml Jar Mayonnaise
8 eggs
1/4 cup Mustard
Fistful of Chives (fresh out of the garden, preferably)
Salt and Pepper, to taste.

1. Boil the potatoes till they're reasonably soft. Drain 'em and put 'em in a bowl (preferably the one you're going to have the salad in. Keeps the dishes to a minimum)
2. Chop the bacon up into pieces, then fry it. (Save the grease for whatever you fry next.)
3. Hard-boil the eggs.
4. Cover and Cool all the ingredients. While you do that, mix up the mayo, the mustard and the chives
4a. Peel the eggs and chop into pieces
5. Mix everything together, being careful not to mash the potatoes TOO much (this is supposed to be a chunky potato salad, after all).

Needless to say, this makes a MASSIVE bowl of Potato Salad. Perfect for family barbeques or various other summer gatherings. I made this a couple days ago off the top of my head for the BBQ my roommates and I were having, and it was a smash hit (with quite a bit left over).

I've been cooking this for many years. Always best the day after. I always add red onion and pickled german cucumbers. MMMMMuuuuu!!! Yummy!!!!!

A coworker shared this Liver recipe with me a while back. I've made this twice, and it's been delicious each time.

Ingredients:
-Liver, prepared the way you like it
-Large, ripe Tomatoes (Beefsteak, preferably)
-Mushrooms (Any variety, really...)
-Green Onions
*Note: The veggies have to be fresh. And chopped.

1. Prepare the liver how you like it (Me? Coat it in a mix of Cornmeal, salt n Pepper then fry it till it's shoe leather). Remove it from the pan, cut it up and set it aside
2. Throw in a little oil (Extra Virgin Olive Oil works for me) and the Mushrooms and Green Onion. Fry 'em up on Medium-High heat till the mushrooms are cooked.
3. Throw in the tomatoes and let it simmer on medium heat. Once they get mushy and turn into a sauce toss the liver back in and cook for a while.

It's almost like a stew. According to my co-worker, you're supposed to serve it with mashed potatoes (but personally I think this stuff tastes really good as-is). If you want, you could probably fry some bacon up with the liver and toss that in as well (I'd likely use my homemade stuff next time I make this recipe).

I had HoneyDew Jalepeno salad this weekend. It was great.

sweet and spicy but not really hot.

Basically chop up a honeydew melon into potatoe salad size chunks, and chop up 1 fresh jalepeno (small pieces), toss in some fresh cilantro to taste, and add 1/4 cup of rice wine vinegar.

Potato salad is better if you boil the potatoes whole first and chop them up after (though they take longer to cook properly).

Make your life easier - mix in smaller batches and combine. Does less damage to the potatoes.

FYI: your recipe is similar to German Potato Salad.

Cooking tip:

Making the perfect corn on the cob:

1. Buy the corn on with the entire husks and all attached.
2. Microwave each ear for about 4-5 min (leave husk on)
3. On the stem end, cut through the cob about 1 row up from the last row of corn.
4. Grab the silk end and shake the corn cob out of the bottom (where you just cut)

The corn will come out completely silk free.

Here is a video showing this process:


After this you can also put the corn on a grill if you want to. Sometimes I brush a little BBQ sauce on the corn and toss it on the grill for a few min.

[Carrikature]

Just keep it in the husk and put it on the grill.
