Instructions

1

Cook the potatoes: Place the unpeeled potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes until tender but still firm.

2

Cool and peel: Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly. Peel them while still warm, then slice into 1/4-inch thick rounds.

3

Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, vegetable broth, Dijon mustard, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Slowly drizzle in the oil while whisking to emulsify.

4

Combine ingredients: Place the warm potato slices in a large bowl. Add the diced red onion and pour the dressing over them. Gently toss to coat evenly.

5

Let it rest: Allow the salad to sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors. Stir occasionally to redistribute the dressing.

6

Add herbs: Just before serving, sprinkle with fresh chives and parsley. Adjust seasoning if needed and serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

Chef's Tips

  • Potato selection: Waxy potatoes hold their shape better than starchy varieties, making them ideal for salads.
  • Dressing absorption: The potatoes absorb more flavor when dressed while still warm.
  • Variations: Add crispy bacon bits or hard-boiled eggs for extra protein.
  • Make ahead: This salad tastes even better the next day as flavors develop.
  • Serving suggestion: Traditionally served with sausages or schnitzel as part of a German meal.
