HOT GERMAN POTATO SALAD



Hot German Potato Salad image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds white-skinned waxy potatoes, scrubbed (about 5 large)
Kosher salt
6 slices bacon (about 4 ounces)
1 small yellow onion, diced
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup fruity white wine (recommended: Riesling)
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Put the potatoes in a large saucepan. Add 2 tablespoons salt and enough cold water to cover by 1-inch. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Drain and cool slightly.
  • 2. When the potatoes are almost done, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, 4 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate. Lower the heat to medium. Add the onion and 2 teaspoons salt and cook, until the onion is translucent, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Whisk in the broth, wine, vinegar, mustard, and sugar and boil until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

Serve the potato salad immediately or while still warm.

RED HOT & BLUE POTATO SALAD - THE ORIGINAL



Red Hot & Blue Potato Salad - the Original image

I've searched for this recipe for several years, ever since I worked at the Red Hot & Blue restaurant in Savannah, GA. I FINALLY managed to get ahold of the store manual's recipe, and this is scaled down from it. It will still make a fair amount, about 12 servings...but once you try it, you'll be grateful for that extra, cause it WON'T last long!!!

Provided by Twisted Moon

Categories     Potato

Time 55m

Yield 2/3 C Servings, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 lbs Red Bliss potatoes
4 large eggs
1/2 cup finely chopped green onion top
1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
1 3/4 teaspoons celery seeds
1 3/4 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Steam the potatoes skin-on for approximately 45 minutes (you can boil them, but they tend to be slightly mushier in the end result). Set aside until cool enough to handle. Boil your eggs, then do the same. When cool enough, peel the eggs ONLY (do NOT peel the potatoes -- the skin gives it part of it's unique texture and taste).
  • In a large bowl, mix the remaining ingredients together until thoroughly mixed. Chop the potatoes and eggs into bite-size pieces and add to bowl. Mix GENTLY -- you want salad, not mush -- until blended.
  • Serve at room temp for up to 2 hours after making -- refridgerate leftovers. It tastes best when room temp, but is delicious cold too -- so if you are making this in advance, it's fine to chill it.
  • NOTE - If you are on a low-sodium diet, you can easily reduce or eliminate the salt the recipe calls for. Just let people salt it at table to taste!
  • ***Wanted to say THANKS to all the reviews! Here's another hint to make this easier: when you are going to make boiled eggs, ALWAYS make sure you buy the eggs at LEAST 7-10 days in advance. Why? Because as an egg matures, it develops a small air "bubble" inside it (it's the membrane separating from the shell). Having this bubble makes it a BREEZE to peel the eggs once they've cooled completely (also a great trick for Easter Eggs, BTW). You want your eggs to be around 10-12 days old, and it takes, on average, 2-3 days to get them from the laying facility to the store.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potato. Waxy potatoes like Red Bliss or Yellow Finn hold their shape well when boiled, making them ideal for potato salad.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are tender but still firm. You don't want them to be too soft, or they will fall apart when you mix them with the other ingredients.
  • Let the potatoes cool before adding the other ingredients. This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light hand when mixing the potato salad. You don't want to mash the potatoes, just gently combine them with the other ingredients.
  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the potato salad will taste.
  • Season the potato salad to taste. Don't be afraid to add more salt, pepper, or other seasonings until the salad tastes just the way you like it.

Conclusion:

Potato salad is a classic dish that can be enjoyed at any time of year. It's a versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients, so there's sure to be a recipe that everyone will enjoy. With these tips, you can make the best potato salad that will be the hit of your next gathering.
