"Potato salad is not just a starchy buddy to your hamburger. It has a proud place in cultures around the world, from German oil-and-vinegar salads with bacon to dill-accented Scandinavian delights. And, of course, it's the all-American side dish at every Fourth of July picnic. But this great dish deserves to shine year-round. In this book are the flavors of beloved favorites, but with new twists. Other recipes bring in international touches. So, take potato salad to stardom. Go spud wild."

Compact and creative cookbook for potluck staple (4.0)

You might wonder...who needs a cookbook for JUST potato salad? But this book will change your mind. For anyone completely and utterly bored by the picnic and potluck standby, this is the cookbook for you. Filled with lots of pictures, this book is really quite pretty. And it re-imagines the potato salad in so many unique, flavorful ways.

The cookbook also challenges you to step away from the run of them mill reds and russets and experiment with the many colorful varieties available. And there are several wonderful takes on using sweet potatoes as well.

My favorite recipe so far involved new potatoes, fresh corn, cherry tomatoes, and a wonderful basil vinaigrette. It would be so perfect for picnicking because the lack of mayonnaise means that food safety isn't an overwhelming concern.
