Oh my, this was good! Very simple to make and no mayonnaise. I never get potato salad right but this was fantastic! Wouldn't mind attempting changing up the vinegar to balsalmic or some dijon mustard instead. But the Creole gave it just enough a flavor kick to take it over the top. Makes my mouth water.
Warm Bacon Potato Salad
Vinaigrette:
½ cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Creole mustard
1 tablespoon sugar
Potato Salad:
2 ½ pounds red or white potatoes, diced into 1 in cubes
6 bacon slices, fried and chopped
1/2 red onion, diced
Freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1-2 teaspoon dried dill)
For the vinaigrette: Whisk all ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
Add potatoes to a pot of salted cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes until just tender. Drain and place in a large bowl.
Add cooked and chopped bacon pieces, diced red onion, freshly ground pepper, minced garlic and dill. Gently combine. Add vinaigrette to vegetables and again gently combine.
