Sweet Onion Potato Salad
---
A very unusual and delicious potato salad. Elevates potato salad
to a new plane.
This is not our traditional family potato salad, but one I make
when I want to
create a sensation!

7 (3 pounds) medium red potatoes
1 large sweet onion (Walla Walla, Vidalia, or
Maui onion)
1 cup finely chopped celery
1 large Golden Delicious apple, unpeeled,
cored, and diced
12 pimiento stuffed green olives, sliced
1/3 cup chopped sweet pickles
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise

2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon steak sauce or soy sauce

Boil potatoes with skins on just until barely done or tender when
pierced with a fork;
drain and cool slightly. As soon as you can handle them, peel and
cut into
chunks; place into a large bowl.
Cut onion into quarters and slice thin; add to potatoes along with
celery, apple,
green olives, and sweet pickles. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise,
Dijon
mustard, cider vinegar, and steak sauce or soy sauce. Spoon over
potato mixture;
mix gently. Season with salt and pepper.

Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight before serving.
