Like thrm equally, but that said there are so many versions of potato salad here in the US depending on what state or region you are from. It definitely not a one type type of thing. I enjoy a mustard style southern style, but hands down is my families that has been made for 3 generations. I do also enjoy a good German style one as well....and if bacon is not in traditional German potato salad, it should be, we Americans love our bacon and bacon makes everything better! 😋
My Dad was stationed in Wurzburg in the late '60s. We never had a bad meal. Lived in a small village named Rossburg (sp), north of Wurzburg. could not get enough of these. I've tried to replicate without success. Thank you so much. // German people were so gracious to us. It was wonderful.
German from Bavaria living in Chicago here. You recipe is very good, my Mom taught me to use warm vegetable broth, about half a cup, and to pour it over the salad before serving. This will give it more flavor and make it nice and warm. Auf Wiedersehen😊
German here. This is a lovely recipe and looks very nice. The reason why some people say, they have never seen this type of potato salad before is possible because of the region they were in. Some do it with mayonnaise other do oil and vinegar. I love the oil and vinegar type. Also most of the time the potatoes are usually pealed, cut into slices and the bacon is cut much smaller. That’s probably what throws people off, too.
Fun fact: Depending on where you are in Germany, ppl will consider a mayo-based potato salad normal and this kind of recipe really weird^^ I only got to know this kind of recipe a few years ago and fell in love with it instantly. Highly recommend rosemary + thyme for herbs!
@@katkatkat5 Fascinating! So Americans have been calling this German Potato Salad but in reality we made that up? I'm German btw and kept thinking of my ancestors making this recipe!! :)
I love that potato salad too, it's a specialty in the German Rhineland-Palatinate region where I live. I still use my grandmother's recipe she got from her mother and so on down the line. I cook the potatoes and then peel and slice them. I don't add quite as much mustard to the dressing (about 1/4 tsp. dried mustard) and no garlic, but of course that's all to taste! I make a LOT of dressing and bind it using a little flour that's stirred into the onion and bacon mix to make a roux, enough dressing to cover most of the potato slices (they soak it up and what they don't soak up is delicious eaten with a spoon). You don't want to stir or toss potato slices of course, else they'll break. My grandmother's hack for that was to let them soak in the marinade in one bowl for 20 minutes, then she'd gently tilt them into a second bowl and let them soak another 10 minutes, then back into the first bowl. I also add a trace of nutmeg, which is so wonderful with potatoes. I don't add any parsley for that touch of green, I use chopped chives and lots of them. It's normally eaten warm or at room temperature and is ideal for heating up in the microwave. Delicious! I won't touch mayo-based potato salads because German potato salad truly is the bomb.
My paternal grand mother made it very similar to your's. Although she was of polish decent, her potatoa salad was widely known in the german communities where I grew up in michigan and was considered among the best there was.
Made your German potato salad over the weekend and it was a big hit! But, the best was having the leftovers the next morning with two eggs on top, delicious.
Many Germans eat this warm potato salad on Christmas Eve with Wiener sausages and then the presents are unwrapped. But of course you can eat it all over the year. Love your channel and the recipes. Greetings from Munich
@@barbn.5249 wundert mich, die Frage. In Berlin und insbesondere in den östlichen Bundesländern kommt dieser Klassiker in jedem 2. Haushalt an Heiligabend auf den Tisch
@@sabines.4271in den östlichen Bundesländern? Ich kenne diese Art Kartoffelsalat nur aus dem Süden Deutschlands. Ich habe im Norden oder Osten ausschließlich Mayo/Joghurt-Kartoffelsalat gesehen
@@barbn.5249 I think Sabine just wanted to introduce, that potato salad and sausage is a classic Christmas dish. I don’t think she wanted to say, that it’s this particular potato salad in this video. Though living in Germany all my live I never saw a variation with bacon, and unpeeled potatoes, but there are a lot of variations of potato salad in Germany (and Austria). I know potato salad with sausage as Christmas dish all over Germany, with variations with vinegar dressing, mayo dressing, wedges and slices, with and without cucumber and apples, warm and cold. And I think it’s great that there’s so much variety!
Thank you so much. My grandparents were from Germany and I always loved the warm potato salad. Now I can make it, too. Theirs had tiny bits of red in it. Not sure if it was pimento or red bell pepper
Use tongs to hold the potatoes while cutting. You can also take the potatoes out with tongs one by one into a strainer or bowl (maybe the one you will store the salad in so less dishes to wash) before draining and put them back in the hot pot. A bit more work but safe rather than risk being burned. Tongs are super essential in my kitchen, I use it for everything.
I am from Germany and I don’t know, where you have this recipe from.🤣 Never ever heard of a potatoes salad like this, will give it definitely a shot. Looks soooo good 😋 I know one from Munich, wich is my husband’s favorite. Potatoes with bacon and broth. Served on every birthday in our home and it‘s always a „Homerun“ 😉 Maybe you salad can replace it 🤤
Hope you enjoy my version! And yes, there's many different takes on a German potato salad, haha! www.tastingtable.com/926829/what-makes-german-potato-salad-different-from-american/
Yes, there are different versions of potatoe salad in Germany - but none with so much bacon! Your version is surely very tasty - but definitely NO “german potatoe salad”! Many greetings from Berlin, Germany 🇩🇪 ❣️
I've heard of this without mayo.only difference no Dijon dressing my grandma or oma made it with potatoes , bacon, bacon Grease, vinegar, and boiled eggs cut up on top...delicious, and that was also hot or cold.very good
I made this for my housewarming party over the weekend. It was a very easy recipe to follow and the result was so delicious. It makes for great leftovers with a side protein and vegetable.
@@Downshiftology So sorry to say that, but we never put Bacon into the potato salad... and the potatoes are too big... and we would peel them... Funny recipe, and I'm sure, really great, but absolutely NOT german...
We always had both mayo-based potato salad and German. This is close with my grandmother's recipe (brown sugar not honey). I make this a couple of times in the summer.
I cannot wait to make this! Looks DELICIOUS! Great tips also. I was thinking about making my potato pieces smaller until you talked about how they will disintegrate so Thank You!
I made this yesterday and it was so good. The only thing is that I didn't have apple vinegar so I used a bit of orange juice instead and it worked great! Thanks for the recipe!
My husband watched the video with me and said "this is what I want for Father's Day!!" I'll add some boiled eggs and spinach to make it more like a meal, ahah YUM!!
I lived in Germany as a military-brat. They use dill instead of parsley -- adds a nice flavor. Other than that your recipe is just like the one I have.
Oh my. I haven't even gotten past the intro pics and I'm so ready to eat some of this. It looks really good. Ok. Just finished watching the video, and I have to say... I will definitely have to try this. Even the way you cooked the onions looked so delicious. Yep, I am so ready for a taste of this. 😄
As a German, I have to say it looks delicious. I have to point out that we peel our potatoes after boiling. 😁 It's crazy, we have a real obsession with potato salad. There is the north part of our country that makes creamy and the south makes a vinegar dressed one. If you keep the salad for the next day (if there are leftovers) you can add a little broth to freshen it up.
You get the vinegar potato salad variation often with thinly sliced cucumber. I think that’s very refreshing in summer. And I have to agree, I never got a potato salad in Germany where the potatos aren‘t peeled ;-) I haven’t ever had bacon in my potato salad, but I tried your recipe for lunch and I think it’s a delicious variation. Thank you for this recipe!
Wishing my Daddy was still here... I’d love to know if his German Ma made this for him... along with her head cheese and sauerkraut 😋 Thanks for sharing... now off to the kitchen 💃🏻 💖
I love potato salad in any style. This one looks absolutely delicious - I mean, everything tastes better with bacon, right? Will definitely give this one a try.
I like to make the meals that you supply on this platform. I also have one of your cookbooks. I will definitely try this very soon. My semi truck stomach is ready to devour that recipe. Thank you so much.
German potatoes salad is so good I thought I was being original when I made German potatoes salad with balsamic vinegar then I saw on a German recipe Chanel doing the same thing 😂 ..
I always want to try new ways of mixing spices, while I was hesitant about it with the bacon fat and honey, I must say this potato salad came out so so good! Thank you Lisa once again for another amazing recipe! 🤤 😊
How come I've never heard of this?? Look so bomb! I might cut my potatoes before I cook them and not sure yet I might add a tiny bit of sugar but I can't wait to try this!!
It is called that cause we Americans have it with the bratwurst in October fest. We love to name things the we make foreign names...better than vinegar based potato salad.
@@ellenradford8582 I think you are probably right. I have come across many American recipes with foreign names that have absolutely nothing to do with that foreign name. A bit like kosher salt, which is basically just cooking salt made from pure sea salt, and not a certified kosher (Jewish) salt unless you buy it in a specific shop that sells actual certified kosher food items. Makes it a little confusing sometimes 🤣
I grew up with both versions we are from West Virginia. My grandma made them perfectly, and I didn't like this version when I was young, lol now I LOVE IT!
I lived in Walldorf (B-W) very close to Heidelberg (visit every year)- and the Kartoffelsalat ( mit eier u. gurke) never contained Dijon/ Bacon,...but your recipe sure sounds "lecker"and it looks like a lot of folks from Bayern consider it authentic to their region, never had this style in Baden-Wuerttemberg/ Swabia though. Looks good, will try :)!
At home if its just me I will do the German version (I grew up with a German OMA/ grandmother in the home so we were eating a version of this) .. If its a event with a group I will make both as some people don't care for Mayo, such as my adult son. I do a mayo version as I live in the South and it has dill pickles cut up (not relish) into it so again more influence from my German relatives.
I married into a family with German immigrants. They did not use the honey or mustard. Just vinegar and sugar. Really good alternative to the typical mayonnaise version.
when it comes to food I love all things german. We lived in germany for 9yrs and I fell in love with the food. I can't wait to try this. I'm curious would turkey bacon be ok to switch out? I'm trying to minimize fats.
One should note that this is not classic German potato salad (if you mean the country) and rather potato salad made after the inventor, a guy named "German". We do peel our potatoes and usually dont use bacon but cubed ham, add mayo and much more!
Thanks for this lovely recipe, I will look forward to trying this one, you are certainly a great encouragement to us all. Maybe if you use tongs to hold on to the hot potatoes it would save you the discomfort. I was wondering why you use specifically Kosher salt as opposed to another variety?
I am on both teams. I have a mayo based dressing that you actually cook and it's the only one I make. But my German grandma always made the German variety.
Let's take a vote - are you team American potato salad or German potato salad?? And if there should be another contender, let me know! ;) xo - Lisa
German for sure! My aunt is German, her parents have an accent and everything. Her German potato salad is the best thing ever!!
🇩🇪

American, but I haven't tried the German yet. Have you tried to make the Amish version of potatoe salad, yet?
I like the German one, BUT it's different here in Munich. Oil, vinegar, onions, cornichons. No bacon. And with thin slices of potatoes
My Dad was stationed in Wurzburg in the late '60s. We never had a bad meal. Lived in a small village named Rossburg (sp), north of Wurzburg. could not get enough of these. I've tried to replicate without success. Thank you so much. // German people were so gracious to us. It was wonderful.
