As we approach summer and move away from soups, stews, and warmer dishes, it's time to break out cooler family favourites such as the iconic potato salad. Here is our spring twist on this summer staple.
Ingredients:
Cover potatoes with cold water. Add salt and bring to boil. Cook until potatoes are tender. Immediately strain and add to ice bath. Once cooled, strain again and set aside.

For chicken eggs:
Add eggs to pot with cold water and cover. Bring to boil. Once rolling boil achieved keep covered and remove from heat. Let sit 10-12 minutes. Transfer to ice bath. Once cooled, peel and slice into rounds.
