HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PREPARE THE SALAD?

From the time you pick up the potatoes to put them in the Microwave, it takes about 15-20 minutes of work to prepare the Salad. Most of that time is spent just waiting on the potatoes to cool down.

HOW SPICY IS THE POTATO SALAD?

Our Mix comes in spicy or mild. 

Everybody is different when it comes to what’s spicy.

If our spicy or mild isn’t spicy enough for you, add white pepper.

Health dept standards are: Eat prepared salads up to 5 days after they are made.

CAN I BOIL THE POTATOES INSTEAD OF MICROWAVING THEM?

You can, but contact us for the different recipe for using boiled potatoes with our Mix.

CAN I EAT THE SALAD IMMEDIATELY AFTER MAKING IT?

You can, but for maximum flavor, you want to chill it for at least 2 hours before eating.

CAN I MAKE THE SALAD WITH THE MICROWAVED POTATOES STILL HOT/WARM?
