Receta Salata Jarzynowa (Polish Vegetable Salad)
Salata Jarzynowa (Polish Vegetable Salad)
This salad is served at family tables for any of the holidays. Every family has their own recipe, but the common ingredients are diced potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, carrots and mayonnaise. Many years ago I had a Polish co-worker who brought this in work one day for me to try. We always called him "Jersey". I never knew what his real name was. His mom used to come from Poland and stay for a few months, and I suppose cooked for him the whole time she was here! I always ate this on top of a Ritz cracker - the taste reminds me of shrimp salad!
