Potato Salad Tips -
Bias Cut

Bias cuts are commonly used on vegetables and meats. A bias cut is a cut at about a 45 degree angle to your cutting board. The cut often makes ingredients look more visually appealing.


Potato Salad Tips -
Frozen Peas

Frozen peas that have been thawed make an excellent choice for potato salad and salads in general as they have a firmer texture than canned peas. Shucking and using fresh peas would be nice as well.
