This warm German potato salad is a favorite of our family year round. Tender potatoes, smoky bacon, and a mouthwatering tangy sauce come together in a rich, comfort food that goes great with roast pork on chilly winter nights or served up beside grilled sausages on the patio in the summer. It is the perfect potluck food and tastes even better when the flavors come together after it sits a bit.
The secret to a great potato salad is to choose the right potatoes. We look for Yukon Gold potatoes for both texture and flavor. Once cooked, the potatoes are ready to soak up all that goodness from the dressing. We often make a little more than the recipe calls for, in hopes of having some leftovers for lunch the next day. That’s a tall order, though, because our family is quick to line up for seconds (or even thirds)!
