TRADITIONAL GERMAN WARM POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Drain. Cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Peel while still warm. Cut into thin slices and put in a large bowl. Add onion.
• Mix hot broth with vinegar, oil, salt, and sugar. Pour immediately over warm potatoes and onion; the potatoes need to still be warm so they can absorb the dressing better. Allow to stand for 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chopped chives and serve warm.

WARM POTATO SALAD WITH SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes in a small pot with plenty of water for about 20 minutes, or until tender. After about 10 minutes, prick the sausages and put them in a small skillet that you've rubbed with oil. Brown on both sides, and cook slowly, turning occasionally, for a total of about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, make the dressing by mixing all the dressing ingredients in a bowl. When the potatoes are ready, drain them and cut them into fairly thick slices (no need to peel them, unless you prefer to). Toss the warm potatoes with the vinaigrette. At this point, the sausages should be ready. Remove them to a plate, and add a splash of red wine to the pan, cooking it down quickly until it is syrupy. Pour this bit of pan juice over however much of the sausage you plan to eat right away, and serve it to yourself with the warm potato salad.

• I've deliberately called for more sausage here than I would eat in one sitting, because I like to have some cooked sausage in the fridge to use in a frittata or an omelet or a hearty soup, or to add to a pasta sauce. It's very handy. So determine for yourself how much sausage you want to cook.
