Ingredients
  

  • 2-1/2 pounds red potatoes
  • ½ pound bacon
  • 1 bunch green onions finely chopped with whites and greens separated
  • ½ cup cider vinegar
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon flour

Instructions
 

  • Place potatoes in large saucepan. Add enough salted water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 15 minutes or until firmly tender. Drain. Let potatoes cool enough to slice.
  • While the potatoes cook, fry the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove and crumble into small bowl; set aside.
  • Cook the onion whites in the bacon drippings until tender.
  • Combine the vinegar, water, sugar, flour, celery salt, and mustard, and then add to the bacon drippings and onions – stir and cook on low heat until thickened.
  • Toss the potatoes, bacon, egg slices, and onion greens gently until blended together. Add the dressing and parsley and toss until well coated. Sprinkle with paprika. Serve warm.
