Thank you, I will try it that way. I made something similar last
week. The dressing had a bit of vinegar.

My mother and grandmother put sliced olives in their potato salad.
I find that people think that's weird, so I don't.

I wouldn't let "people" stop me, unless I'm married to them.

Why would you let a spouse stop you from eating what you
like? You can always make 2 versions.

Is it too much effort?
Is it important to me?
 
But then you could always put a jar of olives on the table and have at
it!

That would do it. Same with Sheldon that can't eat his beloved
onions since his wife hates them. He could always add some to
his own plate.

Yes, I'd really miss onions.

My fav is All American Potato Salad from Cook's Illustrated:
https://www.food.com/recipe/cooks-all-american-potato-salad-210719
 
Works well with less-floury potatoes than Russetts too. Just give them a little more time to soak up the vinegar.

green or black olives?
 
here green olives are standard in potato salad.
 
my own preference is that i do like both sweet and
dill pickle chunks along with the olives, but it is
really busy then. sometimes i prefer simple and none
of those three are added.
 
chopped raw onions, potatoes, boiled eggs and celery
along with the dressing is the most basic version. the
dressing is usually a mix of mostly mayo, some honey,
and a bit of mustard. i don't like celery seed in it.
 
i also don't really like cheese in it, but some
people do that (and i've had it where someone put
chunks of cream cheese in it which was different).

That is indeed one of the "people".
 
Sometimes I add a few sliced olives to my serving, but it isn't
really the same as when they're melded into the salad.

that sounds interesting. No tomatoes? Does it get watery sitting in
the brine? Do you brine the vegetables for a bit and then drain the
salad before adding the final bit of dressing?

I can do this recipe. I have everything in the house. Whoops, no
bell pepper, need to get some.

My fav is Gunsmoke Slaw from _Vegetarian_Planet_ by Didi Emmons. But you'd better like heat (or just cut back on the chipotle in it).
 
Recipe is all over the 'net. (Great cookbook, BTW.)

No. But it is a very enjoyable flavor. It makes a great addition
to either rice or bread pudding.

Too many variables. Is it wet? chopped? Packed down? Cooked?
 
What are you making with it? Sometimes the actual amount doesn't matter so
much.

So, if the spinach starts wilting it needs to be fluffed?

Similar to and reminds me of the Kentucky Derby traditional
treat... Benedictine sandwiches or dip with crackers.
 
I tried that either last year or the year before.
Nice food treat.
 
Many recipe variations are available.

Aren't fresh beans a seasonal thing? And wouldn't dried beans transport more
easily?
