Ukrainian Potato Salad - Mrs.Sophia Teuber

This is an old Ukrarainian Recipe from 1966 in a Ukrainian (PA CHURCH) fund raising cook book  I found at a garage sale. I am giving honarable mention to the original posters of the recipe from the old book. The poster here of this recipe in the book was...Mrs. Sophia Teuber...here it is 44 yrs. later...your recipe will live on Mrs. Teuber. 



INGREDIENTS: 
  • 3 C. diced cooked potatos
  • 1/2 c. diced celery
  • 1/2 c. diced cucumbers
  • 3 hard boiled eggs, chopped
  • 1/2 c. or more of sour cream dressing or mayo
  • 3 Tbsp. of finely chopped green onions
  • 1/2 c. sliced radishes
  • salt to taste






The Finale: Mix all the vegetables and eggs very lightly with a fork or toss gently.  Season to taste w/salt. Add enough salad dressing to moisten these ingredients  sufficiently.  Heap the salad lightly into a bowl and decorate with riced cooked egg, radish rosettes, chopped parsley, or red or green pepper strips.
FYI: Riced means really shredded fine...
