  1. Cook the potatoes, carrots, and celery root in their skins until tender. Let cool, then peel and dice into small cubes.

  2. Hard-boil the eggs: place the eggs in cold water, bring to a boil, then simmer about 9 minutes. Cool, peel, and dice.

  3. Dice the pickled cucumbers and drain the green peas.

  4. In a large bowl, combine the diced cooked vegetables, eggs, pickles, and peas.

  5. Add mayonnaise and mustard. Season with salt and black pepper. Mix gently to coat all pieces evenly.

  6. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld. ENJOY!

Cook’s note

Chilling time (recommended): 1-2 hours
Make sure cooked vegetables are fully cooled before mixing to keep the mayonnaise from thinning.
Dice all ingredients into small, uniform cubes for best texture.
Adjust mayonnaise and mustard amounts to taste.
This salad is often served chilled and makes a popular holiday side dish.
