A bit labor intensive, the flavors of this Italian-style potato salad are so addictive, you won’t mind the extra work. Give the salad plenty of time to come to room temperature before serving.

Hey Sue, “insalata” is an Italian word meaning, “salad.” Not Jewish. Interesting surname! Genealogy is one of my hobbies and I’ve never seen that one come up. Good luck with your research.

Can you please tell me if “insalata” is a jewish word. I’m very interested as I’m been doing a geneology search and one of my relatives names is “Insalata”.
If possible, I’d appreciate a response.
Thanks,
Sue
