Pumpkin Everythang!
Last May while in NY for mother’s day and a slew of
graduations, I made a roasted poblano pepper potato salad that was so good. It
was definitely in my top 5 potato salads ever made. Every time I make a potato salad it is always
a unique one with a different flavor and completely different ingredients.
Today I decided to bring back my roasted poblano pepper potato salad with sweet
roasted pumpkins added to the mix.
I’m looking at the blog in shock and awe that I don’t have a
mayo based potato salad recipe up. it’s
actually a shocker because I’m always making potato salads with different flavor
profiles. Well let me rephrase that, every time I’m in NY I’m always making
potato salads. I am always adding something that I’ve never added before.
Everyone loved the poblano pepper salad the last time, and since it pumpkin
month and sweetness tempers spicy it’s a match made in heaven.
I will say, without bias that this may be the most delicious
potato salad I have ever made. The pumpkin and potato are delicious together,
and the herbs that flavored the dressing are perfection. The shallots , chive,
sage and garlic married with the roaster peppers, siracha, touch of sweetness
from the honey and the mayo it perfection. I Think an important part of any
potato salad it the mayo I used Sir Kensington’s classic mayo, it has all of 10
ingredients that I can pronounce. The thing I love with their mayo is that its
flavor is so robust on its own and they use sunflower or avocado oil to make their
mayo. It is one of the keys to this perfect potato salad.
