German Potato Salad

German potato salad is a hearty, flavorful dish distinct from its creamy American counterpart. Characterized by a warm, tangy dressing typically made from vinegar, mustard, and bacon drippings, this salad often includes onions and fresh herbs, enhancing its robust taste. The potatoes used are usually waxy varieties that hold their shape well when cooked, ensuring each bite is perfectly tender yet firm. Ideal as a side dish for barbecues and family gatherings, its bold flavor pairs wonderfully with grilled meats and complements a range of robust dishes.
