    CLASSIC POTATO SALAD
    ▪2lb/1kg fingerling potatoes, cut into bite size coins
    ▪Salt
    ▪175g or 3/4c mayo (recipe for homemade below)
    ▪80g or 1/3c yellow mustard
    ▪225g or 1 ¼c chopped bread & butter (sweet, tangy) pickles
    ▪15g fresh dill, chopped + extra for garnish
    ▪Black pepper
    Place potatoes into large pot with enough water to cover by an inch. Add a huge pinch of salt. Bring to boil then reduce heat to med-low for 25-30min or until tender but toothsome. Drain off water and place on a tray to cool. When closer to room temp, place potatoes in a bowl and add mayo, mustard, chopped pickles, and dill. I mix with a gloved hand to squish about 20% of the potatoes & create additional mashed texture. Garnish with fresh dill & black pepper.

      Yah, we make ours different too. Southern Germany here. But I definitely know the warm variation too, I just don't like it a whole lot. Imo Kartoffelsalat doesn't need any meat in it and it should be a cold dish, like a cold noodle/pasta salad.
      The stars of potato salad should be potatoes, pickles, dill, really good mayo and a whole bunch of boiled eggs. I usually dice in some Wiener sausages in there too, but they must be high quality, nothing like hotdogs. I think the boiled eggs are what make this style my favorite, mayo and boiled eggs just works really well, it's more like an potato & eggs salad, I guess.

    My German mother always made the most delicious potato salad. Waxy potatoes boiled then peeled and chopped, mixed with chopped sweet and sour gherkins, spring onions, red bell pepper, all tossed in a mixture of mayo and salad cream. Sometimes she added some chopped frankfurters. My two sisters and I could never make it as good as Mums. One day I went to my sisters house and she gave me some potato salad to eat. “ Oh wow!” I said, “ You finally did it! You made it as good as Mums!”. “No” she said, “ It IS Mums, I visited her yesterday and brought it home with me!”.

    Pro tip from a German: Cook the potatoes wole with the skin on in salted water. Then let it cool and peel them. They taste so different and are perfect for potatoe salad like that. That's how we do it in Germany. Also, red potatoes are rare here and we usually use yellow potatoes. That German potatoe salad wasn't German ;)

Just goes to show that just like in America, Germany has many different versions of potato salad also.

    I live in Idaho. A splash of vinegar (any kind) in the water of any boiled potato creates a firmer outside texture that reduces crumbling.

    More German-inspired than German-style. :)
    Never saw this specific kind of potato salad anywhere in Germany myself. There are two major 'modes' for German potato salad, one is mayo-based (in Northern regions) and one is vinegar-oil based (Western-Southern regions). The mayo version often has variations with chives, boiled egg and/or chopped gherkins. The vinegar-oil version can come with roasted (or fresh) onions, bacon, parsley and often a little broth too for flavor. But yeah, every region has its own spin on it and so does pretty much every single German home cook. In that sense again, I wouldn't be surprised after all if someone in Germany made a potato salad similar to yours. More likely they'd go for firm-boiling potatos peeled and cut into slices - after cooking and having cooled down - though.
    Btw. it's pretty much the same with meatballs. Huge variations in meat composition and seasoning across different regions and a whole bunch of regionally specific names for them (Bulette, Pflanzerl, Frikadelle, Klops, Fleischküchle... just to name a few).

      Came here to post exactly this.
      Non-Germans should understand that there are SO many different regional varieties…and every region claims that theirs is „the proper way“ and are prepared to fight anyone over it, in a mostly friendly way. Every region is fiercely protective of their own culinary traditions. Some take this all the way down to family level (which is kind of ridiculous really). To further underline OP‘s point, I must say that it was my granny who cooked the best Rheinischer Sauerbraten in the world. That’s a fact. Mind you, I said „the best“ and not „the only proper one“.
      Some fought bravely and came within reach, but nobody in all those years got to match her level of cookery. 😜 I guess that is true for almost every granny in the country though.
      Add to that all the different regional terms for the same thing. Must be hell for non-natives. Even some Germans struggle with some of those linguistic quirks.

      As a German I thought the same: the first salad resembles a potatoe salad you would do in the northern half of Germany. While the second was similar to a warm potatoe salad you would find in southern parts of Germany.
      Though American dill pickles are fairly sweet and unlike the more savory gherkins/pickles in Germany. The American are more like those Germans would call "Silesian gherkins", which are generally not used for potatoe salad. Usually, for the first salad version - the North German salad - you would use some of the gherkin water.

    Hello,
    for me as a Bavarian it is always interesting to see how our "German" potato salad (we call it "Kartoffelsalat") is made from others. If you want to know the variation of the "Bavarian" (or southern German style): We cook the potatoes in a pressure cooker (about 20 - 25 min. - depends on size). After that we peel them and slice them into smaller pieces (ca. 3 mm thick) and place them into a bowl. Afterwards we add a cut onion and a bit of salt and pepper. If you like mustard add 1 - 2 tea spoons of medium hot mustard. After this, heat up water into a small cup (microwave) and add 1 - 2 tea spoons of "granulated bouillon" (best is "Knorr" or "Maggi" spices for instant soup etc.). after mixing the sliced potatoes, onion, mustard add a bit of "all-purpose" vinegar (ca. 75 ml) as well as "all-purpose" culinary oil (sunflower oil, rape seed oil, ca. 50 ml) and that's it. If you have gherkins you can also add a few sliced of it. You can also use the sweet-sour marinade (of the gherkins) to combine with vinegar. The marinade of a small glass of gherkins is enough for a potatoe salad of 1 kg (1.1 lbs) and the marinade gets a wonderful taste.
    The potato salad with mayonnaise (and sometimes even hard boiled eggs, sliced radish etc.) is made by the "porussians" (northern Germans) an no one in Bavaria and other southern German countries would ever make it like this :-)
    If you like the recipe maybe what about making an "extra" video of it. It is really the case that there are at least two different versions of "Kartoffelsalat" in Germany :-)
    Lots of Greetings and "Servus" from Bavaria, Philipp

      My 50% Westprussian ancestry thanks you for the excellently detailed information. You really captured so well the many subtle nuances between regions.

The irony is that on both sides of the family the potato was initially feared by the local population when introduced as an efficient way to feed the garrisoned soldiers.

      @philippbock3399 Год назад +4

      @@TheCarmarla Thank you for your answer it was a joy reading it ... The way the "northern" Germans make a potato salad reminds me of a salad we call a "Nudelsalat" (noodle salad). It contains 500 g noodles, 5 - 6 hard boiled eggs, 1 tin pies and carrots, gherkins of a "smaller glass of gherkins" or the half amont of a 300 g glass, ca. 500 g "Lyoner sausage" or a similar sausage etc. We make the marinade of Mayonnaise, middle hot mustard and a mixture of vinegar and the marinade of the gherkins ...
      I heared that maybei the "Waldensians" a group of a French protestant church who had to leave France (like the Huguenots) may have "invented" Kartoffelsalat. They also may have introduced potatoes in southwest Germany (some villages in today "Baden-Württemberg"). Another group of the Waldensians were settled down in Hessen etc. Because the potato already was "introduced" in France already the Waldensians started to cultivate them in their new area. And over time they found out to create a salad made of boiled potatoes, vinegar, oil, onions and spices etc. Folklorists found out that the "traditional" Swabian cuisine only consists of a few dishes made of potatoes and that might be a "true source". Because it is easy to cook and you only need a few ingredients that dish more and more spread within Germany (and all over the world). Nowadays each country has its own recipes and variations of the "Kartoffelsalat".

With mayonnaise, pickles, sausage, etc. This is the most popular version. 2. With broth and vinegar. This is primarily done in Baden Württemberg and Bavaria. We don't eat the 2nd version.

      Mayo from home is easy - I learnt in the catering industry , and got a base which makes about 1 liter .
      The base makes at least 5 other cream dressings ; 3 eggs , 1 cup olive oil , add oil slowly to whipping eggs . Thickens up eventually . To help preserve , lemon juice to taste & a little mustard , white pepper - a pinch , salt a smaller pinch .
      From this seperate to make Thousand Island , Tartare , Garlic , blue vein , and your imagination for more taste sensations . Keeps for 3-4 weeks in refridgereatr .

    Brian, my comment is technical in nature. I am impressed with a few things: your extraordinary organization in working out your camera angles and positions; your good lighting; how carefully scripted your movements are, such as when you showed the Keto bars, the frying pan, etc.; paying attention to details like when the lid is deliberately left askew while the potatoes are on the stove; your clear and concise narration at a good speed; and finally, the editing. Wow - what a package. I hope that you win some awards for culinary video presentation. It is hard enough being a good cook or baker, but to top that off with video production skills is just impressive.

    My Secret: Chop Onions while the potatos are cooked. When ready, peel the hot potatos and mix them with the onions. Let it it cool down, cut the potatos into slices and pour cooking hot broth over this. Some vinegar, pickles and mustard are good and at last some good oil finishes the salad. I never eat the skin of potatos.

    Hey Bri, love your potato salad inspirations! I'm German and the best potato salad I know was of course prepared by my grandmother. In this potato salad you can cook the potatoes until they fall apart, because most of the texture comes from the fresh apples, pickles and spring onions. The mayonnaise and the potatoes combine and keep everything together. Try it. It's refreshing and perfect in summer 😊

    My great grandmother came here from Germany in the late 1800's, her last name was Kraus. I remember eating a German potato salad as a young child, I wanted many times to make the dish but could only remember bacon and potatoes not the dressing for this salad. Thank you for the recipe and helping me revive a memory from childhood I thought was lost.

      My great grandma came here in the late 1800's, her last name was Kraus also. My grandma made a German potato salad that was similar to this recipe. When I was young I thought warm potato salad was weird but I've wanted to try it again now that I'm much older and mature. This recipe is the closest I've seen to hers. Can't wait until I'm able to cook and try it!.

      German here... there is no such thing as a "german" potato salad. When you start in the middle of germany and you find a recipe that is "common" there, that recipe will change every 500 meters you travel in any direction. Every (!) family has its own recipe.
      Also, there is a divide in germany: mayonaise based or yoghurt based. Some even use Quark. Or Oil... and then there is another divide: What type of oil... Rape oil, Sunflower seed oil, olive oil? And then there is also a vinegar based potato salad. And even here you will have discussions about the right vinegar: Balsamico, Wine or herbal vinegar etc.
      So... yeah... no, no "german" salat per se
      Fun fact: Red potatoes are kinda unknown in germany.

    Just to add another twist to whatever a German potato salad is...in my 1950s childhood there was NYC deli version that used a like and vinegarette dressing but used frankfurter, Sweet gherkin, celery, hard-boiled egg, and red onion with the potato. My Brooklyn based brother says you can't find it in delis now, but I made it on a visit for childhood nostalgia sake.

    My favorite potato salad is the Greek type, with roasted bell peppers from the jar, raw or pickled onions, capers, fresh oregano, parsley and a mustard / lemon / olive oil dressing. Nice to eat with Greek yogurt during the summertime. The German one is also pretty tight though, anything with no mayo is good in my book

    I never actually saw a (standard) recipe for potato salad in germany, that would contain bacon. That's a rather rare variety. Most common recipes basically contain either mayo or vinegar and oil. That's a matter of the region you're living in.

      There is a German potato salad without mayonnaise, but main ingredient are onions, pickles, oil, vinegar, mustard and bouillon. No bacon! In Bavaria on the other hand, do use bacon in their salat quite often.

    I LOVE potato salad! 🥰
    Thank you ever so much for this video.
    I think my Mom came up with the perfect directive for cooked JUST RIGHT potatoes.
    Take a stock pot/Dutch oven sized (or big pot) and cover the bottom with potatoes. Try to get them all around the same size. And leave them in their skin. Just enough to cover the bottom of the pot. No second row.
    Pour water over the potatoes (about an inch) Bring to a boil.
    Once they're boiling, set timer 12 minutes and let them boil.
    After that, turn the burner off. Cover the pot with a lid and let the potatoes sit in hot water for 18 mins. .... 30 minutes total.
    Drain them. 🥔
    Wait for them to cool or run them under cold water. The peels can be left on if that's your preference. If not they are ready to be peeled and should peel super easily. Ready to chop into bite sized perfectly cooked chunks.
    That's it! 😉😊

    Germans here in the comments emphasize that German potato salad is not like the one you made but the funny thing is: there is more than just one "traditional German potato salad". In fact, in the northern/eastern part of Germany, the potato salad is more similar to your first recipe! With mayo-joghurt/sour creme dressing and pickles, eggs, mustard, dill and sometimes apples!
    Nevertheless, I like the southern German potato salad as well, every potato salad deserves the German love - I'll try your recipes as well! ❤️

    • @wuttnu5204

      In my potato salad, I put:
      Peeled and sliced potatoes (peel after cooking), thinly sliced onion, chopped dill pickles, chopped eggs, capers, pickled green pepper, fresh dill.
      (In summer I add chopped fresh cucumber and radish for a fresher taste.)
      The dressing is a mix of mayo, joghurt or sour creme, mustard and some of the sweet tangy liquid of the pickle jar. Salt + black pepper
      The salad tastes better after a day in the fridge :)

      we bild the potato whole with the skin on. Once it's cooled and sliced we traditionally add some hot vege broth. Once cooled mayo, mustard, vinegar, onion and gherkins are added. That is the Swiss potato salad. However I don't add the broth, mayo and onion. Just olive oil, chives and lemon juice. yummmmm
