Schwäbischer Kartoffelsalat (EN)

Swabian potato salad is a traditional dish from southern Germany, known for its simple yet flavorful preparation. The potatoes are boiled with their skins on, then peeled while still warm and sliced. They are then mixed with finely chopped onions and a warm broth made from vegetable or meat stock, mustard, vinegar, oil, and spices such as salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg. Unlike other potato salads, this version does not contain mayonnaise, giving it a light and tangy flavor. The salad is left to sit for a while so the potatoes can absorb the flavors. It is often served as a side dish with meat, sausages, or as part of a traditional German meal.

Ingredients (for 4 people):

  • 500 g firm potatoes
  • 2 medium onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 125 ml hot broth (the salad should not be swimming in it!)
  • 1 pinch of nutmeg
  • Salt and pepper
  • White wine vinegar
  • Oil

Preparation:

Total time: 50 minutes

Boil the potatoes with their skins in a sufficient amount of water until they are tender. Drain, let them steam off briefly, then peel while still warm and cut into thin slices.

Finely chop the onions and place them in a bowl.

Pour the hot broth over the onions to soften them slightly. Stir in mustard, a pinch of nutmeg, salt, pepper, and a splash of white wine vinegar.

Add the sliced potatoes to the bowl and pour the warm broth mixture over them. Gently mix to avoid breaking the potatoes.

Add some oil and mix again.

Let the salad sit for at least 30 minutes so the flavors can fully develop.
