My German grandma first made this recipe for me. Been fixing it for years! | March 26, 2024

As soon as the golden wheat fields are rustled by the brisk winds and the air grows cool, you know it’s time to gather around a big, comforting meal. This is when memories of the German immigrants who settled in the Midwest and brought their delicious cuisine with them flood back to me.

The classic German potato salad has been around for a long time and may be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Reminiscent of family gatherings around the table for meals and tales told, its tart sweetness and strong tastes evoke warm feelings of reminiscence. Because it is so easy to make and tastes so comforting, this slow cooker version is one you’ll want to save. Adding a can of cream of chicken soup makes it even creamier.

You may serve this German potato salad as a side dish with a variety of main entrees, or stand on its own as a proud dish. Pair it with some juicy pork tenderloin or a succulent roasted chicken for a delicious meal. Serve it with a refreshing green salad topped with red onions and sharp cheddar cubes for a lighter dinner option. Also, some thick-crusted bread to soak up the rich dressing would be just as welcome as a surprise pie from a dear friend.
