Need some comfort food? It’s not known when and how potato salad was introduced to the Japanese food repertoire, or which European cuisine it was inspired by. The most popular theory is that it may have been derived from Olivier salad, a diced boiled potato-based dish that’s eaten in Russia and several other countries. One of the earliest published recipes aimed at home cooks for potato salad appeared in 1935 and called for homemade mayonnaise, but the introduction of commercial mayonnaise by Kewpie Co. a decade earlier most certainly helped to spread the dish’s popularity. By the 1950s, potato salad had become a home kitchen favorite, and in 1972 a cooking magazine called it Japan’s “most familiar and loved salad.” Click on the link in our bio for a recipe for Japanese potato salad. 📸 Makiko Itoh
