Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 8
• 5 medium potatoes, peeled & diced into 1/2 cubes
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 (15 ounce) can sweet corn, drained
• 3/4 cup mayonnaise (e.g. miracle whip) or 3/4 cup salad dressing (e.g. miracle whip)
• 2 tablespoons tabasco brand smoked chipotle hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon bacon bits
• 1/2 teaspoon caraway seed (optional)
• 1 teaspoon celery seed
• 2 tablespoons dried chives or 2 tablespoons fresh chives
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke

Recipe

• 1 boil diced potatoes until just done – do not overcook. drain, and soak in cold water (to stop cooking process), drain again once cooled.
• 2 whisk tabasco® sauce into mayonnaise until well blended. more or less chipotle can be added to taste. take care however; mixture will get hotter as flavors mature.
• 3 combine potatoes, sweet corn, and onions into a mixing bowl – gently fold mayonnaise mixture in taking care not to mash potatoes. add remaining ingredients and fold until well mixed.
• 4 refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving – longer is better.
• 5 recipe variations: deep fry or oven fry potatoes instead of boiling. add ¾ cup of diced sweet or dill pickles.
