Secret to Scrumptious German Potato Salad Revealed!

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes; cook until fork-tender, 8 to 15 minutes. Drain.

2. While potatoes are cooking, cook bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until browned and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving drippings in the skillet. Chop or crumble bacon when cool enough to handle.

3. Add sugar and flour to drippings in the skillet, then pour in water and vinegar. Cook over medium heat, stirring any browned bits off the bottom with a wooden spoon, until dressing is thick, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off heat.

4. Add potatoes, crumbled bacon, and green onions to the skillet; stir until coated. Season with salt and pepper.

   

Tips

You should use gold or red potatoes instead of russet potatoes. Russets are too soft and will break apart.
