re: Potato salad for gumbo

I just use regular vinegar in the gumbo.

I throw in a little pure acid

Mustard should not be in gumbo potato salad in any noticeable quantity.

Ive seen prairie cajuns, like som bitches that speak more french than english, squirt mustard on their boiled crawifsh

Here is how I make mine

5 lbs potatoes peeled and cubed
1 dozen eggs
Yellow mustard
Mayo

Boil potatoes till soft I like to add some seasoning and maybe some celery/ onion to the water.

Drain potatoes and set aside

Take boiled eggs and separate white from yolk.

Chop egg whites

Smash yolks in a bowl and put a healthy squirt of mustard

Dump this mixture into boiled potatoes and mash along with the egg whites

Put enough mayo to get desired taste/consistency

I have never measured the mayo/mustard ratio just eyeball it and taste as I go.

Some people like a chunky potatoe salad I prefer a mashed. I will also add some chopped green onion from time to time but not everyone likes the crunch.
