German Potato Salad From Swanson Recipes

WARM GERMAN POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the potatoes, liquid smoke, garlic, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large pot; add water to just cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, 15 minutes. Drain, then rest the colander over the empty pot to dry the potatoes. Once cooled slightly, quarter the larger potatoes and halve the others. Put in a large bowl. Discard the garlic.
• Char the bell peppers directly over a medium flame on a gas burner, rotating, until the peppers are black. (Or broil the peppers, rotating, until charred.) Transfer the charred peppers to a resealable plastic bag and close; let steam 5 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, remove the seeds and charred skin and chop the peppers.
• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate, leaving the fat in the pan. Add the vinegar, sugar, mustard, paprika, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper to the still-hot pan; simmer until the sugar and salt dissolve, 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and toss until they soak up the vinegar mixture.
• Return the potatoes to the bowl. Add the peppers, bacon, parsley and scallions; toss.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a medium-size pot and cover them with enough water to extend 2 inches above the surface of the potatoes. Salt the water and bring to boil over medium-high heat. Continue cooking until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and slice into 1/4-inch rounds.
• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once crisp, place on a paper towel-lined plate and crumble into small pieces. Pour off the rendered fat, reserving 1/4 cup in the pan. Turn the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook until translucent and just beginning to brown, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Whisk in the vinegar, sugar, mustard, and salt and stir until thick and bubbly. Add the sliced, cooked potatoes and toss to coat. Top with the crumbled bacon and garnish with the chives. Serve warm.
