Ingredients
- 2 pounds potatoes yellow or red
- 8 lices Bacon uncooked
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- ½ cup vegetable broth or chicken broth
- ⅓ cup white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Scrub the potatoes (do not peel) and cut potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain well.
- Meanwhile, in a 10-inch skillet over medium high heat, add the bacon and cook until crisp. Turn the heat down to medium low and transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate reserving the grease in the skillet. Add the onion to the bacon drippings and until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk in the broth, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Simmer over medium heat while whisking for 2 to 3 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the warm potatoes, dressing, parsley, and half of the bacon. Toss to combine, season with additional salt and pepper if desired. Rest at least 1 hour before serving.
- Top with the remaining crumbled bacon and serve warm or room temperature.
Notes
- Optional additions: Add ½ teaspoon of dry mustard, 1 teaspoon of grainy mustard or 1/2 cup of chopped celery or sweet pickles to this recipe if desired.
- Use waxy potatoes such as red or Yukon gold. Baking potatoes or russets are too starchy and will soak up all of the dressing.
- Sweet pickles can be added, and in place of vinegar and sugar, you can use sweet pickle juice.
- Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat portions in the microwave, or enjoy it cold!
