Omas Summer German Potato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Add salt to cucumbers in a medium bowl and set aside to wilt.
• 2. Remove skin from potatoes when cool enough to handle. Slice.
• 3. In a large bowl, lightly toss potatoes and remaining ingredients until well mixed.
• 4. Squeeze the cucumbers in a kitchen towel to remove excess water. Add cucumbers and green onions to potato mixture and toss lightly.
• 5. If desired, garnish with minced chives.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain, and set aside to cool.
• Place the bacon in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry until browned and crisp, turning as needed. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add onion to the bacon grease, and cook over medium heat until browned. Add the vinegar, water, sugar, salt and pepper to the pan. Bring to a boil, then add the potatoes and parsley. Crumble in half of the bacon. Heat through, then transfer to a serving dish. Crumble the remaining bacon over the top, and serve warm.
