My grandmother used to add apples because they were a special, and expensive, item when I was little. I love noche buena. Thanks so much for the post!!!!!!!

[@Chefzeecooks]

I've never had it with apples! I have to try it. Sounds delicious!

Pine Apple or Apple bit the Apple hou have to put in vinegar a little bit

My grandma would add apples too! It’s delicious!

[@alexismondolfi7452]

@Eddy127 hook us up with that recipe !! 🙏🏽

[@tonikleo7626]

When I first time visited Dominican restaurant in USA I was surprised to find Russian salad;)) and I can tell you as a Rusa ;))) it’s very close to our olivie salad-traditional Russian salad;)

[@Lindamorena]

Dominicans call this ensalada Rusa.

[@LAFAMILIARECIO]

Awesome 👏

What it needs it

[@Jennifer-jz8lm]

Right

[@mariahletts3867]

This just goes to show you that Dominicans and Haitians are truly one people because we Haitians make it exactly just like this literally

[@esterf7064]

Mariah Letts we are literally alike...

[@JE-im4im]

We are not the same

[@devonne623]

@@JE-im4im Wow! You've made this comment so many times already. You are both Isla Hispaniola regardless of the divide that history has caused.

[@Soso88888]

@@JE-im4im yes we both similar in many ways.. We both are made of the same genetic make up everyone has the same organs pumping inside of them everyone is breathing the same air and blood 🩸 is running through our veins which makes everyone similar to one another. it’s just the languages that is slightly different!

[@victormitrell2989]

@@Soso88888different genetic make up. Haitian are fully black. Dominicans are mixed and white. Different language, culture, religion, sports…

[@JustSophonie]

This is so cool! I never knew Dominicans made this too. Haitians have this potato salad at every big function. So delicious 😋😋😋

[@blad89s65]

How do you think they got it they 🙄have been copying many of the things Dominicans do it’s common sense Dominicans don’t go to Haiti but Haitians definitely go Dominican Republic and 80% of the food y’all get comes from DR

[@siomi2701]

My mom made this growing up me and all my friends favorite 🇩🇴

[@CinescapesAndAdventures]

Great authentic recipe! My Dominican mother in law used to make a salad just like it for holidays. I never took the recipy from her. Now I found one that tastes just like the original. Highly recommended!

[@berviffy30]

Esa ensalada no puede faltar en la mesa para las pascuas. Es el plato que siempre me toca llevar 🙂

[@unamujer360]

I love ensalada rusa Dominicana with diced apples too.

[@estar12]

As a Dominican I can say in my household we never used peas... but regardless this is my favorite salad

[@Chefzeecooks]

I've had it all kinds of ways. My grandmother didn't add peas or carrots and she too was born and raised in DR. On the other hand, my Mother In Law who's also raised and born in DR adds both peas and carrots. It honestly comes down to preference

[@virginialiriano-bohlin1198]

Girl.... se me hizo agua la boca y me dio hambre :) (porque sera que veo estos video de tu yummy cosina a esta hora LOL) cuantos recuerdos de mi Madre cuando estaba viva y cocinaba esto. :( Let me tell you I had a class in college that we have to make a presentation and I decided to make this salad. At the end of the class, I got a few points less because I forgot to present the final product but when I did and people tasted it, they were pleasantly surprised. There were not let over :) I need to make this again and this video will definitely refresh my memory. Thank you.

Hola chef zee thank you For your awesome recipes..I’m Dominican and I didn’t know certain recipes until I started to follow you since 3 year ago and try your recipes like the Haitian potatoes salad, morir sonando, Dominican spaghettis,Moro,Camarones en ajos,and even the chofan. I had no idea what was that (chofan)..And many more things I’ve try, and every time it came out Amazing..I appreciate you so much and I’m so proud of you because not only you got me In touch with my roots with all those dishes. I learned so much more recipe from Italy, Cuba and so on..I’m also proud of you because you are doing something positive with your life to keep our country Dominican Republic and Cuba a good name. I’m recommending my friends and family about your show..Please, keep putting out more new recipes.. Thank you again!!God blessed you always!!!

I’m making this tonight with your mora de gandules recipe! Looks so good!

[@user-vc9or5uc4x]

Interesting im Dominican and been making this salad as a child. Never knew anyone added sugar to it. Might try it.

[@aseal5511]

I know of this potato salad from Panama ever since I was a kid (now I'm a grandma) served a lot at parties and events. I was taught to make a vinaigrette dressing and mix it with the potatoes while hot, let it sit for a while so it's soaked into the potatoes, then add the ingredients, then the mayonnaise and use the egg to decorate it. Hard to pass it in my house, no one likes the remolacha part. Wow a lookback at my childhood.

[@Chefzeecooks]

I've seen it done that way too!!! I shared the way my grandmother taught me. Both ways work and I 100% agree--- it's best to make this potato salad while the potatoes are still warm

[@MimyBongiorno]

Looks so good

I remembered your recipe I made it today it was delicious did everything but I used white onions 🌰 with vinegar because I didn't have any red onions and I also used red potatoes instead of regular potatoes I cooked the potatoes and eggs for last night left it in the refrigerator and peeled them this morning I also added 3 packs of hot mustard from the Chinese restaurants I have regular mustard but hot mustard gives 😋 my potato salad a kick and I also added some sweet relish it was delicious 😋
