    1/2 lb diced bacon
    5 large red potatoes
    1 red onion chopped

    Sauce
    Reserved bacon fat
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp pepper
    1 T sugar
    1/2 C white vinegar
    1 egg beaten

    Boil potatoes in skin until tender. Roughly dice and add to onion and bacon.

    Combine remaining ingredients to cooled bacon fat, heat thoroughly, and pour over warm potato mixture.

    *this salad way surpasses any other German potato salad recipe I’ve tried! Obviously you may want more vinegar and salt to taste. I found the fact that there was an egg in here very interesting.

    Interesting recipe, as a German I must say that I have never come across any potato salad like this…

    I LOVE german potato salad! I eat it hot or cold! Definitely going to try this particular one out soon.

  4. Oh god. Why? Why is there sugar in it? That’s disgusting and so unnecessary.

    My mom uses that same recipe. I make her double the bacon though 😉
