I'm going to need you to same-day that to me for proper disposal.

This salad is a staple and is always made for New Year's celebration. Since I learned how to cook from my mom and my grandmother most of the recipes I make I don't have written down, I just make them - I plan to fix it in 2026 and start recording the recipes properly. Here's a link to a good/proper recipe: https://natashaskitchen.com/olivye-ukrainian-potato-salad/
If you actually make this, couple of mods and recommendations: Add 1 or 2 medium gala apples - the apples add extra crunch and balance. I used leftover ham, traditionally this was made with beef (boiled), I recommend black forest ham or roast beef. Mayo - I'm very picky about mayo (we buy russian mayo from a local store that needs to be refrigerated), get at least Hellman's if you can or make it yourself. You can cut mayo with sour cream, usually 60/40 (mayo/sour cream) or to taste. Lastly, add a dash of onion powder and dash of garlic powder - it tastes better.
Cheers and Happy New Year!
