Zart gegarte Bamberger Hörnchen verbinden sich mit würziger Zwiebel, feiner Brühe und pikantem Senf. Der Salat glänzt goldgelb, duftet aromatisch und schmeckt herrlich herzhaft, leicht säuerlich und angenehm cremig.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 kg potatoes (preferably ‚Bamberger Hörnchen‘)
- 1 onion
- 6 tablespoons wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 2 tablespoons oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- 125 ml hot meat broth
- 1 bunch chives
- Sugar
Instructions
- Thoroughly scrub the potatoes under running water to remove any dirt. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them completely with water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 30 minutes, or until they are cooked through and tender when pierced with a knife.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and immediately rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process and make them easier to handle. While the potatoes are still warm, carefully peel off the skins using a small knife or your hands. Cut the peeled potatoes into even, thin slices and place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Prepare the marinade by first peeling the onion and finely dicing it into small cubes. In a separate bowl, combine the wine vinegar, mustard, oil, a generous pinch of salt, a pinch of sugar, and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk these ingredients together until well blended.
- Add the diced onion and the hot meat broth to the marinade mixture. Stir well to combine. The hot broth will help the flavors to meld and slightly soften the onions.
- Pour the hot marinade evenly over the warm sliced potatoes in the mixing bowl. Gently toss everything together with a large spoon or spatula, taking care not to break up the potato slices. This ensures that every slice absorbs the flavorful marinade.
- Let the potato salad sit at room temperature for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to develop and the potatoes to soak up the marinade. Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or a touch more sugar if needed.
- Just before serving, finely chop the chives into small rings. Sprinkle the chopped chives generously over the top of the salad for a fresh, herbal note and a burst of color. Serve the salad slightly warm or at room temperature as a side dish.
Notes
For an authentic Franconian experience, use ‚Bamberger Hörnchen‘ potatoes if available, as their waxy texture is ideal for potato salad. This salad is a traditional side dish in Franconia, especially popular alongside bratwurst, fried fish, or roasted meats. Allowing the salad to rest before serving is crucial for full flavor development. If you prefer a vegetarian version, you can substitute vegetable broth for the meat broth.
