  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1 1/2  pounds        Red potatoes
     1/3  cup           Finely chopped onion
   2      tablespoons   Diced dill pickle
   1      teaspoon      Caraway seeds
   1      teaspoon      Paprika -- hot Hungarian
                        preferred
   1 1/2  tablespoons   Spicy brown mustard
   1 1/2  tablespoons   Dijon-style mustard
   1      tablespoon    Lemon juice
     1/2  tablespoon    Vinegar -- sherry
                        vinegar preferred
     1/3  cup           Vegetable oil
     1/2  teaspoon      Salt or more to taste

1. Cut potatoes in half and steam or boil until tender but still firm,
about 15 minutes.

 2. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine onion, dill pickle, caraway seeds,
paprika and both mustards. Using a whisk, stir in lemon juice and
vinegar, then stir in oil. Add salt, taste and correct seasoning as
desired.

 3. Peel cooked potatoes, cut into medium cubes or small slices and
immediately combine with dressing in the bowl. Set aside until serving,
preferably at room temperature.

 4. Serve with cold cuts, sausages or frankfurters. If desired, dice
cold cuts and mix into salad or add 1/2 cup diced cooked pork shank (see
previous recipe).
