This German Potato Salad comes from a vintage cookbook called Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church Women Cookbook. It was published in 1981 and is republished here, with permission as part of a new series where we share recipes from New Glarus' past.

The Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church was organized in 1967, and by the time this cookbook was assembled, the women contributing recipes were documenting dishes they had likely been making for decades. The recipe is credited to Beth (Mattie) Luchsinger whose name appears without fanfare, like all of the recipes in the cookbook, suggesting this was a well-known, well-trusted dish.
