German Potato Salad
This scrumptious German Potato Salad combines tender red potatoes with crispy bacon and a tangy apple cider vinegar dressing.
Servings 6
Ingredients
- 2 pounds red potatoes
- 7 slices bacon, chopped
- ½ large yellow onion, diced
- ⅔ cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon coconut sugar, or brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt, plus more salt for the water
- ½ teaspoon celery salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Wash and scrub your potatoes, then add them to a saucepan with salt and water just covering them. Boil them until they are fork tender, but not too soft. It should take about 8-10 minutes, depending on the size of your potatoes.
- While the potatoes are boiling, add the chopped bacon to a large skillet.
- Fry until crisp, then remove the bacon and add it to a paper towel lined plate.
- With the bacon grease still in the skillet, add in the onions and salt.
- Sauté until they are cooked through, then add in the garlic. Sauté for another 20 seconds, making sure not to brown the garlic or it will become bitter.
- Add in the honey, coconut sugar, celery salt, pepper and dijon mustard, then whisk in the apple cider vinegar.
- Simmer on low for another 2 minutes or until the vinegar has reduced slightly.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, quarter them or cut into bite size pieces, while they are still hot, but just cool enough to handle, then add them to a bowl.
- Pour the dressing over the cut potatoes, then mix in the reserved crispy bacon and chopped fresh parsley. Make sure all the potatoes are well coated in the dressing.
- Allow to sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to allow the potatoes to absorb the all the flavors in the dressing and serve warm. You can serve it cold or at room temperature, but I think it’s best served warm.
