Steps:
- Boil the potatoes in a large pot of water until they are fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes then allow them to cool completely. Cut the potatoes into quarters then add them to a large bowl.
- Add the bacon to a large sauté pan set over medium heat. Cook the bacon until it is crispy and all of the fat has rendered off. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a plate, leaving 3 tablespoons of the drippings in the pan.
- Add the diced onions to the pan and cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent. Stir in the apple cider vinegar, whole grain mustard, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 cup water. Simmer the mixture for 3 minutes until it has reduced to 1 cup.
- Pour the dressing over the potatoes, add the cooked bacon and toss to combine. Stir in the chives and serve warm.

HERBY POTATO SALAD WITH WARM BACON VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with 2 inches water. Generously season the water with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes.
- While the potatoes cook, place the bacon in a cold skillet and turn to medium-low heat. Add the olive oil and thyme to the pan. Saute the bacon and thyme until just starting to crisp, about 7 minutes; we want to render the bacon slowly. Once the bacon has rendered some of its fat, add the onions to the bacon and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the vinegar, butter and mustard.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and add immediately to the pan with the sauteed bacon. Stir to coat, adjusting the seasoning, if necessary. Add the remaining fresh herbs, toss and serve.
- This salad can be served warm or at room temperature.
- Cook's Note: Adding the potatoes while they are still warm will help them to soak up the flavors of the vinaigrette.

HERBED POTATO SALAD WITH LEMON-OLIVE OIL DRESSING
Steps:
- Steam potatoes just until tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer potatoes to large bowl. Add oil to potatoes and toss to coat. Mix in onion, bell pepper, lemon juice, oregano, mint, salt and pepper. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover; chill. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before serving.)
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape well and are less likely to fall apart when cooked. Avoid starchy potatoes, such as Russet potatoes, which tend to get mushy when boiled.
- Cook the potatoes properly: To prevent the potatoes from overcooking and becoming mushy, bring them to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until they are tender but still hold their shape. You can also steam the potatoes or cook them in a slow cooker.
- Make the dressing while the potatoes are cooking: This will give the flavors time to meld and develop. You can make the dressing ahead of time and refrigerate it until you're ready to use it.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, and dill, add a bright, flavorful touch to potato salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
- Don't overdress the salad: A little dressing goes a long way, so be careful not to overdo it. You can always add more dressing if needed, but it's difficult to take it away.
- Let the salad chill before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop further. You can also make the salad a day ahead of time and refrigerate it overnight.
