Has anyone made the Roasted Potato Salad in the blue book? I'm wondering about leftovers. The only dressing is some vinegar so I'm thinking I could just roast everything today and then assemble with vinegar at each meal. Anyone had this and stored leftovers dressed? I have visions of soggy potatoes.

I did think about this more. My grandmother always dresses her potatoes for potato salad when they are warm. She makes a bacon-style dressing so it is the warm bacon/potatoes, it is delicious!

I'm not a huge fan of potatoes, but on the rare occasion that I make and eat potato salad, I roast the potatoes with a bit of oil and let them cool. Then I dress them just before eating. They might not get quite as soggy because of the oil coating and the roasting process. Just a thought.

On the other hand, the heat from the potatoes helps to absorb the dressing, making it more flavorful... But I am not a big potato salad fan. I would probably dress them hot, and make a bit of extra dressing to toss in when you serve them.

I haven't made this but I would say wait to dress the potatoes. I do think you may end up with some soggy taters.
