Who loves potato salad? I know people are pretty passionate about their favorite . But have you ever tried German Potato Salad before? It’s a little different than a traditional potato salad, as it can be & is often served warm. However, it’s just as tasty when cold, which is why I love it so much.

Most recipes call for traditional mustard or even dijon can be used. But my family loves something with a little bite, so we use this Spicy Brown Mustard from French’s. It certainly brings an added spark to the dish, which is so tasty.

This really is so great for all the fun summer outdoor foods. We whipped this up to pair with some sea salt garlic corn & some blue cheese burgers. But we’ll be making it along side some gourmet hot dogs & Mexican corn salsa for Father’s Day this weekend.

Although French’s is known for its iconic Classic Yellow Mustard, did you know that it also has a deliciously bold tasting Spicy Brown mustard AND a smooth & creamy Dijon?

I sure love a variety like that because it makes creating new & interesting recipes so much easier. Plus, there’s something for everyone.
