Perfect Potato Salad

Name: Perfect Potato Salad
Ingredients: 2 cups mayonnaise (I use Best Foods/Hellmans Light Mayo with great results); 2/3 cup buttermilk; 1 1/2 teaspoons dried parsley; 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons salt (adjust according to taste - you may want to sue the greater amount if your potatoes were boiled without salt); 1 1/2 teaspoons minced dried onions or 1 teaspoon onion powder; 1 teaspoon garlic powder; 1 teaspoon seasoned salt; 1 teaspoon ground black pepper; 2 tablespoons yellow mustard; 5 pounds potatoes (I prefer to use red potatoes or yukon gold potatoes because I like their firm non-grainy texture but russet potatoes work, too); 1 15-ounce can olives, cut in half; 10 hard-boiled eggs*, diced

"The salt amounts in this recipe may vary if you boil your potatoes with salt so make sure you taste along the way so the salad isn't too salty (or undersalted)!..."
