Test Kitchen Tips:
If you like, to make the salad preparation even quicker, use 1 20-ounce package refrigerated new potato wedges for the fresh potatoes. Cook them according to the package directions.
When you buy smoked salmon for this salad, look for a chunks of the smoked fish. Mostly likely it will have the skin still attached to it. Simply remove the skin and bones then chunk it up and it is ready to serve.
A quick alternative to using smoked salmon is to use solid white tuna that is packed in water. All you need to do is drain off the liquid and break the tuna into chunks.
