Potato Salad (Kartoflusalat in Iceland)

Recipe #254676 | 20 min | 20 min prep | SERVES 6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: twissis

This is my final recipe entry from Cool Cuisine (Traditional Icelandic Cuisine) by Nanna Rognvaldardottir & I suppose it's only fitting it should feature the much-revered potato. Per the intro: "Potato salad is served w/many meat dishes, esp steaks, grilled meat & sausages. There is a wide variety of recipes, but this 1 is the most popular." (This recipe begins w/the eggs & potatoes already cooked, so that time is not reflected) Enjoy !
