This hearty German potato salad is bursting with the rich flavors of fried bacon and tart gherkins. The potatoes are boiled with the skins on (they contain many beneficial micronutrients, especially when they're new) and tossed in bacon fat with green onions, gherkins, and crispy bacon bits. A couple of tablespoons of white wine vinegar and Dijon mustard add extra flavor. Serve as a side dish with meat dishes, and it's especially delicious with pork.
