3 pounds Potatoes, preferably Yukon Gold You can substitute another variety of thin-skinned potato.
1 tsp Salt You will need additional salt for the water in which you are boiling the potatoes.
1/2 tsp Black pepper
2 tsp Sucanat In a pinch, you can use white sugar. You can also substitute honey. If you use honey, dissolve it first in the apple cider vinegar.
1 tbsp Mustard, preferably a grainy variety
1/2 cup Apple cider vinegar, preferably raw
2 tbsp Olive oil
1 bunch Green onions, sliced thin crosswise
4 slices Bacon, cooked and chopped fine

Peel potatoes and cut into bite-sized pieces.
Boil potatoes in well-salted water for approximately 10 minutes until fork tender.
While potatoes are boiling, prepare the dressing. Mix vinegar, salt, pepper, Sucanat, and mustard in a bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid. Give the jar a good shake until everything is well mixed.
Remove the lid and add the olive oil. Replace the lid and give the jar another good shake to help emulsify the dressing.
Once cooked, drain the potatoes and place into a serving bowl. Pour the dressing over the potatoes while they are still hot and toss well. (See video.)
Add green onions and bacon to the potatoes. Toss well and serve hot or at room temperature. Enjoy!
