I bought a small ham for ham and potato salad, but I had two tenderloins that
needed cooking first. What to do? What to do? I added a couple of Camparis
and did this.

Looks good and the potato salad looks especially tempting. Did you make
it?

I did! The recent potato salad thread prompted me along with a quarter ham. I
make two types, one from my mother and one from her mother. One uses mayo and
mustard as a binder (this one) and the other uses mayo and whole cream as a
thinner binder (Moms). I would make a German potato salad, but I’m not sure
my wife would like it. It’s hard to screw up potato salad.

What are those dark red things posing as tomatoes? I should have adjusted the
lighting in a photo program, but that ain’t happening. I tie beef filets
tightly with a string to make them fat, sear hell out of them in a cast iron
pan and chuck them in a 400F oven for four to six minutes.
You should do that with the fish, witchetty grubs and scorpions that you
routinely eat.

_MY_ personal taste is I don't care German potato salad at all if it's
the version that's served hot/warm. But this one in the picture gets
an A+.

There we differ. I don't like cold food, period. I really don't like
cold potato salad made with mayo. My (of German descent) grandmother
made warm potato salad, not with ham but with crisp crumbled bacon. I'd
eat that! :)

Ain't it great there are so many recipes of potato salad? We can all
eat our favorite variety/flavor and everybody is happy! I think there
are as many 'tater salad recipes as there are recipes for meatloaf.

:o)

I've told folks that Provel cheese is the witchetty grubs of St. Louis. Hey, if that's what you grew up on.

I've never tried them. Who knows what we're missing out on?

Joan doesn't like hot German potato salad. I already have my grandma's
recipe. :) You might want to post yours for those to don't have it.

peel and boil taters (or if not going to peel then
you can scrub 'em), chunk 'em, add whatever vinegar
you like along with fried onions and bacon. but
perhaps you don't like fried onions and mushy bacon?

i'm pretty happy with apple cider vinegar, some
sugar and fried onions. i don't need any meat at all.

if i do want bacon i prefer it crunchy and on top
not all mushy and mixed in.

adjust all ingredients and proportions to taste.

we just made german potato salad yesterday and
it's ok. i like it both cold and warmed up or hot.
with or without meats. with or without onions but i
do prefer it with. bacon, definitely like it much
better crumbled on top at the last moments. sometimes
i've eaten the bacon and had it sizzle the saliva in
my mouth as i've forgotten how hot it can get in
the microwave. freaked out my nephew some days ago.
he thought i really burned my tongue.
