German Potato Salad
- 1/3 cup white-wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons stone-ground mustard, or to taste
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, well scrubbed, diced into 1-inch cubes
- 8 slices bacon, diced
- 1 medium red onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- Whisk together the white-wine vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
- Slip the potatoes into a large pot of cold water.
- Bring to a boil, add a large pinch of salt, then reduce to a simmer.
- Cook the potatoes for 20 minutes, or until fork-tender.
- Drain well, and keep warm while you prepare the bacon.
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp.
- Remove the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate.
- Add the onion and garlic to the bacon grease, and saute until tender, about 4 minutes.
- Whisk the dressing into the vegetables.
- Simmer, while stirring, until you see the dressing beginning to thicken so that it lightly coats the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes.
- Add the potatoes, dill, parsley, and bacon to the pan, and stir together well to coat with dressing.
- Serve while warm.
