If you use russet baking potatoes you can dice or corsley mash. If you use red skinned or Yukon gold potatoes, you need to dice and NOT mash. Millie preferred the red skinned potatoes, I like the russet.
You can also use diced or green onions in this, but mother always said that the potato salad would spoil much easier if there were onions in it…something about chemical reaction with mayo/eggs/onion.
