Author Notes: I’m not a big fan of mayonnaise based potato salads (especially if they are sitting out in the summer,) this German type uses no mayo and has a nice mustard kick and a little vinegar tang. —Erwinm
Serves: 6 to 8
Ingredients
-
2
pounds Yukon gold potatoes (cubed)
-
Koshers salt
-
1
tablespoon Olive oil
-
1/2
pound Thick cut bacon

1
bunch Chives (finely chopped)

Directions
- Place washed cubed potatoes in a pot, cover with water and add salt. Bring the pot to a boil then simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
