I haven't yet been able to make it, but since I am German and generally like a good German potato salad, I thought I would put my name on this great looking recipe! ;) If you make it before I get a chance, please let me know what you think!

CLASSIC GERMAN POTATO SALAD



Classic German Potato Salad image

Authentic German Potato salad is usually served warm or at room temperature, but however you eat it this salad is absolutely delicious. I must confess that I start eating it as soon as it is mixed, and some say it is even better after it has set for a few hours or the next day.

Time 45m

Yield 2 1/2 lbs

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs baby red potatoes (or your favorite potato)
1 large white onion
1 lb bacon
6 tablespoons vinegar (or to taste)
1/3 cup oil
1 beef bouillon cubes or 1 vegetable bouillon cube
1 bunch green onion
2 tablespoons fresh parsley
3 tablespoons brown mustard (according to your taste)

Steps:

  • Boil peeled or skins-on (according to your preference) potatoes in water and bouillon for 15-20 minutes. (This may take longer if you are at high altitude). Don't let them get too soft - a fork should go in but the potatoes should not fall apart.
  • Fry bacon and crumble bacon into small pieces.
  • Dice the white onion and fry it in the bacon grease.
  • Chop the potatoes into cubes.
  • Mix the bacon, white onion, oil, mustard, and vinegar together in a bowl that will be large enough to hold your potatoes.
  • Chop the green onions.
  • Toss the cooled potatoes in your sauce along with the green onions.
  • Sprinkle with parsley, salt and pepper to taste.

MOM'S GERMAN POTATO SALAD

I know there is a debate as to what constitutes "real" German potato salad. All I know is that this is TOO tasty! For those of you who shy away from German Potato salad because it is too vinegary, try this. It has converted MANY people as the balance is darn near perfect. Prep time does not include boiling the potatoes.

AUTHENTIC GERMAN POTATO SALAD

This authentic German potato salad recipe came from Speck's Restaurant, which was a famous eating establishment in St. Louis from the 1920s through the '50s.
