SNickelFritz Oktoberfest Potato Salad 

💙 The perfect traditional summer side dish.



We all love a good potato salad — the kind we grew up with, the kind that appears at every family barbecue, picnic, and holiday table.


One day at a market, a customer came to see me and told me how grateful she was to find our Oktoberfest Mustard. She said she always made her potato salad with the OG and was absolutely “devastated” when it was no longer available.


When I asked how she made her recipe, she simply said: “Make your mayonnaise dressing and add Oktoberfest Mustard.”


That’s the beauty of old family recipes. ❤️ They’re rarely written down exactly. You just know how much mayo to add, how much vinegar feels right, and what the texture should look like when it all comes together. They’re difficult to explain — and even harder to duplicate perfectly.

So I made my own version of the potato salad I’ve been making for years, using the traditional “a little of this and a little of that” method. I tried to capture it on paper as best I could.

When you make this recipe, remember: make it your own. Taste as you go, adjust it to your liking, and maybe start a family tradition of your own. ✨


Ingredients 🧂

  • 2 large potatoes 🥔

  • 2–3 hard-boiled eggs 🥚

  • ¼ cup finely chopped sweet onion

  • 2 tbsp finely chopped celery

  • 4 tbsp Hellmann’s mayonnaise (light works well)

  • 2 tbsp white vinegar

  • 2 tsp sugar

  • 2 tbsp SNickelFritz Kitchens Oktoberfest Mustard 💙

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Paprika and chopped parsley, for garnish 🌿


Directions 👩‍🍳

  1. Boil the potatoes until just fork tender, then allow them to cool completely.Tip: If the potatoes are boiled too soft, the salad will have a mushier texture.

  2. Peel the potatoes if desired, then cut into bite-sized cubes.

  3. Chop the onion and celery. Dice the hard-boiled eggs into chunks.

  4. In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, Oktoberfest Mustard, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.

  5. Gently fold the potatoes into the dressing until evenly coated.

  6. Add the eggs and carefully mix again, trying to keep the egg pieces intact.

  7. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with paprika and chopped parsley before serving. 🌿✨


Serving Tip 🍽️

This potato salad is best served chilled and pairs perfectly with grilled sausages, hamburgers, schnitzel, or any summer barbecue favourites. 🌭☀️🔥
