Hot Bacon Potato Salad

Hungarians are masters of salads, with summer and winter variations for healthy eating according to the seasons. While potato salad with sour cream and hard-boiled eggs graces the summer table, hot potato salad with bacon warms hearts and bodies during the winter. This dish, known as sultszalonna krumplisalata in Hungarian, is served immediately after cooking.
