German Potato Salad Recipe
Report
I had my first taste of authentic German Potato Salad 7 years ago... and it was love at first bite! The delicious side dish is made with red potatoes, yellow onion, and a delicious apple cider vinegar dressing. And gently tossed with cooked bacon, chives, and a drizzle of olive oil! Unlike American potato salads, this side dish can be served warm, cold, or room temperature.

Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 1/2 pound Bacon
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 Tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 and 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoons minced chives, for garnish
Instructions
- Place the potatoes in a large pot of lightly salted water. Bring to boil over medium-high heat and cook for about 13 to 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Drain potatoes and quickly run them under cold water until cool to the touch. Then transfer to a cutting board and carefully slice into 1/4-inch rounds. Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crispy on both sides, about 6 minutes total. Once crisp, place on a paper towel-lined plate to cool for a minute. Then transfer to a cutting board and roughly chop into small pieces. Drain about half of the bacon grease from the pan, then place the pan back over medium heat.
- Add the onion into the skillet with the remaining bacon grease and cook until translucent, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
- In a spouted measuring cup combine the the apple cider vinegar, both sugars, dijon mustard, salt and pepper, and stir until well combined. Pour into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes, or until bubbling and slightly thickened.
- Add in 1/4 cup of the bacon and the sliced potatoes and toss to coat. Cook for 1 minute, then transfer to a serving dish.
- Top with the remains crumbled bacon and chives. Serve warm.
