Sweet Onion Potato Salad

    ---
    A very unusual and delicious potato salad. Elevates potato salad to a new plane.
    This is not our traditional family potato salad, but one I make when I want to
    create a sensation!

    7 (3 pounds) medium red potatoes
    1 large sweet onion (Walla Walla, Vidalia, or
        Maui onion)
    1 cup finely chopped celery
    1 large Golden Delicious apple, unpeeled,
     cored, and diced
    12 pimiento stuffed green olives, sliced
    1/3 cup chopped sweet pickles

    Boil potatoes with skins on just until barely done or tender when pierced with a fork;
    drain and cool slightly. As soon as you can handle them, peel and cut into
    chunks; place into a large bowl.
    Cut onion into quarters and slice thin; add to potatoes along with celery, apple,
    green olives, and sweet pickles. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon
    mustard, cider vinegar, and steak sauce or soy sauce. Spoon over potato mixture;
    mix gently. Season with salt and pepper.

    Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight before serving.
    Makes 10 to 12 servings.
