2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt

In a large kettle, cook potatoes in boiling, salted water until tender. (Potatoes can be peeled and cubed before boiling to save cooking time.) Drain and cool. Separate hard-cooked egg yolks from whites. Set yolks aside. Chop whites and add to potatoes in a bowl. Add onion. In a small bowl, mash yolks. Stir in mayonnaise, milk, vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt, and pepper. Pour over potato salad and toss well. Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. Spoon into a serving bowl. Garnish with egg slices and paprika. Chill until serving time. Serves 12.
