German Potato Salad - Microwave image

I've been making this fast, easy recipe for over 20 years! There is almost no clean up and it's very tasty. This can be served piping hot, but we prefer it just barely warm. If you like less zip from the vinegar, just reduce the amount to 1/8 cup. Cooking time includes potato cooking time.

This recipe was a waste of time. The potato salad was dry and tasteless.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potato salad turned out bland. I think I might have added too much vinegar.
