How To Make german potato salad

Step 1Cook potatoes in boiling water for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender, but still firm. Drain and set aside to cool. When cool enough to handle, peel and dice, place in large bowl and set aside.

Step 2Boil eggs, peel and chop, set aside
-
Step 3Cook bacon until crisp, set aside. (I cut the bacon into thin strips before I fry it, or you can fry whole pieces and crumble it.

Step 4In the skillet, with reserved grease from bacon, combine onion, celery, vinegar,water, sugar, cornstarch, salt and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring frequently.
