Notes
This recipe is excellent warm or cold. It is usually eaten with German sausage, and is great for any family gathering. Typically in southern Germany, this potato salad is served in a salad. That's right, in a salad! It was always my favorite surprise at the end of my salad. I could not wait to get to the potato salad at the bottom. Hopefully you will enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
