This is a fantastic salad! I have made this many times, and have always been asked for the recipe! I like red onions and usually will use them in this. Just try this and add your own little tweak to it. Ingredients:
6 slices bacon |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1/4 cup water |
1 cup chopped onion |
3/4 cup diced celery |
2 teaspoons salt (to taste) |
1 teaspoon granulated sugar |
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (to taste) |
1/2 cup cider vinegar |
6 cups red potatoes, cooked |
Directions:
1. Fry the bacon in a large, heavy skillet until crisp. Remove the bacon, drain well on paper towels, then crumble; reserve the bacon fat.
2. Dissolve the cornstarch in the water.
3. Saute the onion and celery in the reserved bacon fat over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the onions are translucent.
4. Add the salt, sugar and pepper, and dissolved cornstarch to the skillet.
5. Next, add the vinegar and bring to a boil over medium heat for 3 minutes.
6. Add the potatoes and crumbled bacon, stirring gently.
7. Serve hot.
