GERMAN POTATO SALAD WITH SAUSAGE
Hearty and saucy, this potato salad is an old family recipe that was updated using cream of potato soup to ease preparation. Despite the "salad" name, this is a hot and filling dish that brings comfort food to the supper. The sausage and sauerkraut give it a special zip. -Teresa McGill, Trotwood, Ohio

Steps:
- Combine the potatoes, liquid smoke, garlic, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large pot; add water to just cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, 15 minutes. Drain, then rest the colander over the empty pot to dry the potatoes. Once cooled slightly, quarter the larger potatoes and halve the others. Put in a large bowl. Discard the garlic.
- Char the bell peppers directly over a medium flame on a gas burner, rotating, until the peppers are black. (Or broil the peppers, rotating, until charred.) Transfer the charred peppers to a resealable plastic bag and close; let steam 5 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, remove the seeds and charred skin and chop the peppers.
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate, leaving the fat in the pan. Add the vinegar, sugar, mustard, paprika, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper to the still-hot pan; simmer until the sugar and salt dissolve, 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and toss until they soak up the vinegar mixture.
- Return the potatoes to the bowl. Add the peppers, bacon, parsley and scallions; toss.

WARM POTATO SALAD WITH SAUSAGE
Steps:
- Boil the potatoes in a small pot with plenty of water for about 20 minutes, or until tender. After about 10 minutes, prick the sausages and put them in a small skillet that you've rubbed with oil. Brown on both sides, and cook slowly, turning occasionally, for a total of about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, make the dressing by mixing all the dressing ingredients in a bowl. When the potatoes are ready, drain them and cut them into fairly thick slices (no need to peel them, unless you prefer to). Toss the warm potatoes with the vinaigrette. At this point, the sausages should be ready. Remove them to a plate, and add a splash of red wine to the pan, cooking it down quickly until it is syrupy. Pour this bit of pan juice over however much of the sausage you plan to eat right away, and serve it to yourself with the warm potato salad.
- Second Round
- I've deliberately called for more sausage here than I would eat in one sitting, because I like to have some cooked sausage in the fridge to use in a frittata or an omelet or a hearty soup, or to add to a pasta sauce. It's very handy. So determine for yourself how much sausage you want to cook.
