Almost Sally Bell's Potato Salad

Sally Bell's Kitchen in Richmond, VA is full of deliciousness.  One of my favorites is their potato salad, which is served in their famous box lunches.  This is a copycat recipe, courtesy of the Richmond Times-Dispatch.  Almost as good as the real thing!

3 hard-cooked egg yolks
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
3 tablespoons sweet pickle juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground celery seed
1 teaspoon sugar
1 small onion, chopped
2 ribs celery, sliced thinly
5 medium boiled, peeled, cubed redskin potatoes, slightly mashed

In a large bowl, mash egg yolks, incorporate into the mayonnaise. Add mustard, sweet pickle juice, salt, pepper, ground celery seeds and sugar. Add onions, celery and potatoes; mix to desired consistency.

Note: To come a little closer to the original, tasters recommended halving the salt in the Almost Sally Bell's and tripling the sugar.
