Potato salad may be considered as native to German soil. The potatoes must be boiled in their skins, and while warm must be peeled and sliced thin ; then chives, onions, and parsley are chopped very fine and strewn over the potatoes in the salad bowl. Now sprinkle with salt and pepper ; add three spoonfuls of oil ; moisten moderately with vinegar and water mixed
