I have been making this recipe for years. It is by far the best and closest to my 100% German grandmom's. Not sure why another reviewer said it is not like real German potato salad because it is! Excellent! If it's to dry, you used too many potatoes and need to increase the water and vinegar. Just adjust. It is delicious!
