5 - 6 Large Potatoes
8 - 10 Large Eggs
1/2 Large finely chopped Yellow or White Onion

1 tbsp Mustard
Directions:
Directions:
Boil Potatoes and Eggs, cool. If you run cold water on boiled eggs immediately after they are done they are easier to peel. Chop into a large bowl. Add chopped onion/crab. Mix well.

Mix dressing together... pour on, mix well. I've estimated the milk vinegar and mustard as I usually go by taste. Refrigerates a few hours or overnight. Tastes better the next day once the flavors meld. Garnish with parsley flakes and paprika.

Personal Notes:
Neil says "Ruth makes the best Potato Salad". It has got me in trouble a time or two. Old family story.

Great for potlucks - but indicate you have crab in it incase their are allergies.
