I first experienced this recipe at a family gathering. It has become a "must have" holiday dish and one that I often make for "covered dish" gatherings. I do use a little less oil, and I like to add a couple teaspoons of balsamic vinegar on occasion for a change of pace.

First time I made this recipe, it made too much dressing for only 4 potatoes, and my just right potatoes became mushy when I put the warm dressing over them. I liked the taste so decided to make it again. This time I used 6 potatoes and cooked them to just barely done (still had some firmness. My pantry had no white wine vinegar, so used seasoned rice vinegar. OMG! I think this is the only potato salad I will ever make again. I liked it the first time, loved it the second!

I LOVE this dish!! I have made it several times for small dinner parties. Its a great deviation from standard potato salad if you are looking for something different. Plus, it is so easy to make. Once I tried to lighten it up a bit and used bacon pieces instead of "real" bacon. I then sautéed the onions and garlic in a bit of olive oil. Both ways came out delicious!
