Japanese-style potato salad
Japanese-style potato salad is a popular side dish in Japan that has a unique twist compared to traditional potato salad. It typically includes diced potatoes (often Yukon gold potatoes for a creamy texture), hard-boiled eggs, mayonnaise (such as Kewpie mayonnaise, which is a Japanese brand known for its rich and creamy flavor), and sometimes ingredients like carrots, cucumbers, or corn.Japanese potato salad tends to be creamier and smoother than Western-style potato salad, often mashed slightly for a softer texture. The addition of ingredients like apple cider vinegar, smoked sausage, bacon, fried shallots, and chives can elevate the flavors and create a delicious and satisfying dish with a mix of textures and flavors.
