So often German potato salad, when made in the States, includes bacon. But when our family visited a while back, they made a completely different German Potato Salad--one with cucumbers. It was refreshing, not heavy. So here's one to try although I admit the recipe is quite rough.
Cook potatoes, peel and cut into slices (perhaps 3 lbs of potatoes)
Peel 1-2 cucumbers, slice in half then slice thinly so you have half moons. You can easily pull out the seeds as you go.
1/2 of a medium size onion, thinly sliced.
Now here's where it gets difficult. The dressing is made of vegetable buillion (1-2 cubes in a cup of water. Salt and pepper. No, the recipe I was given doesn't tell how much. Silly. OK, I will guesstimate for you for the other, more crucial ingrediets. Add a tablespoon or 2 of mustard, 1/4 c of vinegar, 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Mix together and pour over the potatoes, cucumbers and onions.
It really is delicious.
