Instructions

1. Break fresh beans into pieces approx. 3 cm long or boil frozen green beans in salted water. The beans should retain some bite.
2. Cook the peeled potatoes in salted water for about 20 minutes.
3. Drain the beans in a sieve and cut the slightly cooled potatoes into cubes. Mix both in a salad bowl. Mix the ingredients for the sauce together and pour over the beans with the potatoes. Mix everything well and let it steep for about 1 hour or longer.
4. Just before serving, fry the diced bacon in a pan with a little oil and pour over the salad. Mix well again.
5. Another tip: Grandma’s bean salad tastes best lukewarm with a boiled sausage and a cold beer.
