German potato salad with tender red potatoes and tangy dressing makes the ultimate back yard barbecue accompaniment.
Ingredients
2 pounds small red potatoes, scrubbed but not peeled
3 tbsp garbanzo bean flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp celery seed
1/4 tsp black pepper
3 tbsp vegetable oil (if not using bacon)
1 cup diced onions
1 cup diced celery
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
3 tbsp minced fresh parsley, garnish
6 slices bacon, optional
Instructions
- If making your salad with bacon, cook the bacon in a large sauté pan or dutch oven until crisp; drain and crumble. Reserve bacon and 1/4 cup of the drippings.
- Place the whole potatoes in a pot of cold water, covering the potatoes with at least 3-inches of water. Place the pot over high heat. When the water comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are fork tender, about 15-20 minutes. After 10 minutes of cooking, periodically check for doneness by piercing the center of a potato with the blade of a paring knife. You might need to remove smaller potatoes from the water a little sooner and let larger potatoes cook a little longer. The cooking time will depend on the size of the potatoes. Drain and set potatoes aside.
- Mix the flour, sugar, salt, celery seed, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil (if making without the bacon) or the reserved bacon fat in a sauté pan or dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions and celery to the pan and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the flour mixture and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently. Add the vinegar and water and mix with a wire whip. Reduce heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 5 minutes.
- While the dressing is simmering, slice the potatoes into ¼-inch rounds. You can also cut potatoes into 3/4-inch cubes, especially if the potatoes are larger.
- Add potatoes and if making with bacon, the bacon. Be gentle when stirring the potatoes into the dressing, to avoid breaking them up too much. Cook for 1-2 minutes, just until heated through. Remove from heat.
- Serve warm, room temperature, or cold. The flavors are best when allowed to sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes. This recipe yields 6 cups.
