How To Make ultimate creamy potato salad

  • 1
    Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them up and put them in a pot of water to boil. Salt the water. Cook until you can put a fork through them easily. Try not to over cook them or they will be mushy. Once cooked run them under cold water to cool them off a bit.
  • 2
    Fry up the bacon and cook until crispy. Once cooked place on a paper towel to take off some of the grease. Put aside until cool, then break into small pieces.
  • 3
    Place the potatoes in a deep bowl, and add the cut up bacon, corn, and dill pickles and mix. Be gentle when mixing so you don't make the potatoes mushy.
  • 4
    Now add the sugar, garlic, and scallions. Mix again. Now add the mustard and mayonnaise. Mix well. Sprinkle with paprika, cover and put in the refrigerator until cold. Serve and wait for the compliments.
