Step-by-Step Instructions
-
1
Boil the unpeeled potatoes in salted water until a knife enters easily, then drain and cool just enough to handle.
-
2
Dice the bacon and cook it over medium heat until crisp. Transfer the bacon to a plate, leaving two tablespoons of fat in the skillet.
-
3
Soften the sliced red onion in the skillet. Add the stock, vinegar, mustard, and a pinch of pepper, then simmer for 2 minutes.
-
4
Peel and slice the warm potatoes directly into a large bowl. Pour over the hot dressing and fold gently so the slices stay intact.
-
5
Rest for 15 minutes, then add the bacon, chives, and parsley. Taste and adjust the vinegar and salt before serving warm.
