Directions:
Place potatoes in a large saucepan and add water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; add 1 Tbsp. salt, reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring once or twice, until potatoes are tender, about 8 minutes.

Drain potatoes and transfer to large bowl. Add vinegar and, using a rubber spatula, toss gently to combine. Let stand until potatoes are just warmed, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together celery, onion, pickle relish, mayo, mustard, celery seed, parsley, pepper and ½ tsp. of salt.

Using a rubber spatula, gently fold dressing and eggs, if using, into potatoes. Cover and refrigerate till chilled, about 1 hour; serve.

Can be covered and refrigerated for up to 1 day.

Personal Notes:
My mom, Patricia, calls this Yankee Potato Salad. So I don't make it often, but when I do, I see her eating it. She just comments that this ISN'T the way SHE makes it. Personally, I love this version over the heavily mustard ones. That vinegar gives it just a small kick that is wonderful!!!
