       Roger Nelson's German Potato Salad Ward Dossche - 2:292/854   
      
       Roger and I discussed food. He talked to me about a recipe for   
       what he called "German potato salad" that originated from his   
       mother's side of the family "and was a real treat to eat", or so   
       he said.  He also volunteered "Sadly, mother couldn't teach   
       either of my wives to make it, although she did have some   
       success with wife #2, who declared it too difficult to make"   
      
       According to his late sister, who Roger claimed had a fantastic   
       memory, the recipe was as follows (verbatim):   
      
          2 lb. Irish potatoes (mother boiled them with the skin on for   
           easier peeling)   
          4 slices bacon (crisp)   
          1 small onion, chopped   
          2 tbsp.  water   
          1 tbsp.  vinegar   
          4-6 hard-boiled eggs sliced (depending on the amount you want   
           to make, then you would have to adjust the amount of   
           potatoes and other ingredients)   
      
          Fry bacon while potatoes are boiling and place them on a   
          plate to drain; keep bacon grease for later use   
      
          When potatoes are boiled and skinned, cut them to the desired   
          size and place in large bowl.  Crunch bacon and add it and   
          the rest of the ingredients (including hot bacon grease) and   
          mix thoroughly.  The bacon grease holds everything together.   
          I ate it hot, luke-warm and cold.  I liked it so much.   
      
          Season to taste.
