German Potato Salad

If you have never had German Potato Salad you are missing out on a taste sensation! Unlike your "typical" potato salad, this is served hot. We love it year round. I found this recipe in an old local church cookbook! 

6 medium potatoes, cooked, drained and sliced. I always use    red potatoes and leave the skins on.
2 hard boiled eggs, peeled and sliced
Toss together.
In a skillet, saute 
6 slices of bacon, till nearly crispy
Remove bacon , drain, chop and add to potato and eggs.
Remove all but 2 Tbps. of bacon grease and in that 2 Tbsp. of grease, saute 
1 small onion, diced 
2 stalks of celery , diced
until soft. 
Then add 
2 Tbsp. flour and
2 Tbsp. sugar 
Quickly stir and then add
1 cup water and 
1/2 cup cider vinegar.
Continue simmering and stirring until thickened. Add the potatoes, eggs and bacon and simmer till heated through.
