This recipe was a big hit and very easy to make. I served it with bratwurst and sauerkraut for an authentic german meal.

I loved this recipe. It was very easy to make. I would recommend cutting back on the sugar by one-third. Although I usually prefer things on the sweet side, it was too sweet. The next time I will definately cut back on the sugar by at least one-third. Also I highly recommend letting the salad sit in the refrigerator for a couple of hours to let the flavors gel.

Received rave reviews for this dish at a gathering of friends. Cheated and used pre-cooked bacon - still turned out great!

I don't know about the authentic name on this recipe but I do know it is great. I got great comments on it at church luncheon. The changes I made: I used gourmet small red potatoes. I boiled them for ten minutes skin on and cut them in eighths. I layered potatoes, vinegar dressing, fresh parsley, and bacon until I finished the top of the salad with lots of parsley and bacon. Layering kept me from having to disturb the potatoes with too much stirring and evenly distibuted the great taste. Put it in the recipe box.

Took this to the family reunion, and it was a hit. The only change was to add some celery seed. Several people asked for the recipe, and I brought home an empty bowl. Thanks for the great recipe.

I made this potato salad for my BBQ party and my guest loved this! they called this 'the best potato salad they ever had'. This is my first time to get such an excellent result by following what exactly the recipe says.

I did not care for the sugar.My mother in law is from Germany. The way she taught me was no sugar and keep the onions raw.

My husband doesn't like the traditional egg potato salad, so I had to come up with a potato salad he would like. I figured it must be the eggs and mayo aspect of the recipe that didn't sit well with him. I found this wonderful rendition and he (and the rest of whosenever I make it for) loves it! Especially others who don't normally like potato salad--I can't keep a full dish! Thanks!

This was an easy and tasty recipe, however it wasn't exactly what I was hoping to find. My husband's grandfather was German and I am trying to find a recipe like what he made. This one wasn't as tangy and I was hoping for.

This was a delicious potato salad! I hate mayo, so I was on the hunt for a potato salad that didn't have mayo in it and found this gem! I made it the night before for a BBQ the next day and just popped it in the oven 30 minutes before we were about to eat to reheat it through. It came out perfectly and not dried out. I also tripled the recipe to feed a dozen people.

We both loved this potato salad! My husband has always enjoyed the typical, creamy, mayo style potato salad served cold and also loves potatoes in general. After noticing this well rated recipe, I decided to give something different a try. I didn't change a thing, using amounts exactly as recipe stated (something I rarely do!)and it was perfect. Flavors were excellent (plus healthier without all that mayo). Served the salad warm. Have already made this salad again and made a double recipe so I'd have leftovers ..which were also excellent. It's great to find a new way to serve potatoes. How could something so simple be so delicious?!!

I rated this a 3 because my husband did not like his at all--so I ate the rest of his. I would probably rate it a 4 or 5 after I reduced the vinegar by about half. Also, I'd stir all the bacon bits in. This definitely did not take 50 min. start to finish; it took me more like 30 min. including peeling and dicing potatoes. Perhaps the reason was that I was cooking the potatoes and bacon at the same time and also cooked chopped bacon, which reduces the amount of time needed to cook the bacon.

I made this for "German Night" at my husbands request. I was a little worried about potato salad without mayo but this was excellent! We love the vinegar flavor and usually add a little more than it calls for. Will make again and again!
