I've added your grandmother's name to the recipe. I especially like the
proportions of the ingredients in this. Some German potato salads have a
dressing/sauce that is too much like the consistency of gravy. This looks
perfect and well-balanced for flavor and consistency. I'm really looking
forward to making it.

Do you have a preference for white or cider vinegar in this? I would be
inclined to use cinder vinegar.
