How to make German Potato Salad

Tips from the cook

Slice the potatoes while warm: cold potatoes do not soak up the stock.
The stock should taste too salty and sour; the potatoes soak it up and would be bland otherwise.
Add the oil only at the end, not to the stock.
Try a little dijon mustard, nutmeg, a pinch of sugar, chopped pickles, cucumber or fresh herbs.
