Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 pounds red potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1/2 pound bacon, cut into 1/2-inch dice
3/4 cup finely minced yellow onion (about 1 small)
1/3 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon whole grain Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh

Directions:
Directions:
Place potatoes and 1 tablespoon salt in a large pot and cover with cold water until water level is 1 inch above
potatoes. Set over medium-high heat until boiling. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until a paring knife can
be inserted into potatoes with no resistance, 10-15 minutes. Strain potatoes and set aside.
While potatoes are cooking, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove
bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving as much rendered fat in the pan as possible. Pour out all but about 3
tablespoons of fat from pan.
Add onions to pan with bacon fat and cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove
from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, sugar, mustard, 2 teaspoons of salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
Place potatoes, bacon, onions, parsley, and chives in a large bowl. Add dressing and toss gently to combine. Let
sit for 10 to 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld, then serve immediately while still warm.
