Recipe video above. Here's a terrific potato salad peppered with tasty bacon bits and charred golden pops of sweet corn. Forget mayonnaise! We're using a cider vinegar dressing that doubles as a marinade for the hot potatoes so they absorb flavour as they cool. Make the most of every opportunity to pump up the flavour!Serve at room temperature or just slightly warm. Not hot and definitely not fridge cold (criminal!)
