PRESSURE COOKER GERMAN POTATO SALAD WITH SAUSAGE



Pressure Cooker German Potato Salad With Sausage image

quick creamy german potato salad that is made in a pressure cooker. It is take out of the "The Pressure Cooker Cookbook" by Toula Patsalis. I use lower fat turkey sausage. I have tried regular sausage in this recipe and it makes the salad too greasy. I normally dice the radishes and bell peppers in small pieces. I use about a half a pepper. I have substituted regular yellow mustard for dry mustard. Black pepper seems to be ok to use as well.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of potatoes. Mixing waxy and starchy potatoes gives the salad a creamy and firm texture. Yukon Gold, red potatoes, and fingerlings are all great choices.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are just tender. Overcooked potatoes will fall apart when you mix them with the other ingredients.
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly before slicing them. This will help prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the potatoes. This will give you clean, even slices that will hold their shape when mixed with the other ingredients.
  • Don't overmix the salad. A few gentle stirs are all you need to combine the ingredients. Overmixing will mash the potatoes and make the salad mushy.
  • Serve the salad warm or at room temperature. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

German potato salad is a versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It's a great way to use up leftover potatoes and it's always a crowd-pleaser. With these tips, you can make the perfect German potato salad that your family and friends will love.
