Step 1
Begin by filling a large pot with salted water and bringing it to a vigorous boil.

Once boiling, introduce the cubed potatoes and let them simmer until they are tender yet retain a slight firmness, which should take about 15 minutes.

Allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for 10 to 12 minutes.

Once the time is up, plunge the eggs into an ice bath to halt the cooking process.

After they have cooled, peel and chop the eggs, then add them to the bowl with the potatoes.

In a separate medium bowl, combine lemon juice, vegetable oil, sugar, seasoned salt, Worcestershire sauce, ground mustard, and black pepper, whisking until the mixture is harmonious.

Gently fold in the mayonnaise until the dressing achieves a smooth consistency.

Drizzle this delightful dressing over the potatoes and eggs, stirring gently to ensure everything is evenly coated.
