Skin on or skin off?  Clap on, clap off…..  Sorry, I couldn’t help it.  I love the color this Classic Red Bliss Potato Salad.  It’s so festive and delicious and so easy to make.  My family switches off between the Classic Red Bliss Potato Salad and the Summer Picnic Potato Salad, which we make without the skin and with a bit of dill pickle.  In less than 20 minutes, you’ll have potato salad chillin’ in the fridge!

Cast of Ingredients for Pressure Cooker Classic Red Bliss Potato Salad

I generally figure about two pounds of potatoes to four large eggs  It makes it easy to weigh out the potatoes at the grocery store.  Cooking the eggs with the potatoes in the Pressure Cooker makes things so much easier.

Scrub the potatoes, remove any of the “eyes” or brown spots, cut into cubes and place in strainer basket or on a trivet, with eggs nestled in between the potatoes.

While the potatoes and eggs are cooking, mix up the sauce.  It will taste too salty, but don’t worry, once you add the eggs and potatoes, it will be fine.  We like the Hellmann’s/Best Food Olive Oil Mayonnaise or a Light Mayonnaise, but use whatever your family likes.

Once potatoes and eggs are cooked and cooled, add them to a large bowl and add the mayonnaise mixture.

Gently mix everything together and chill for at least one hour.  Adjust spices as necessary.

Sprinkle with dill weed, if desired.  Pair these Pressure Cooker Classic Red Bliss Potato Salad with my Pressure Cooker Homemade Carolina Spare Ribs and my Pressure Cooker Holiday Baked Beans.
