- Ingredients
    + 3kg waxy potatoes
    + 3 bay leaves
    + 3-4 medium onions (~200-300g), finely chopped
    + 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    + 180mL white vinegar
        * Note: I have also used other types of vinegar, but I
          think I like it the most with white vinegar.
    + 750mL vegetable broth
        * Note: I use store-bought powder for making the vegetable
          broth, and I always use about twice as much powder as
          the package says because I like it a bit stronger,
          especially since the potatoes soak up a lot.
    + 6 Tbsp mustard
    + 12 Tbsp vegetable oil (180mL)
        * Note: Some types of oil have a very strong taste that
          may not be ideal for potato salad.
    + Chives to taste (I usually add a few teaspoons)
- Instructions
    + Either peel and boil or boil and peel the potatoes (I always
      peel them before because some potatoes are really annoying
      to peel after cooking).
        * Note: Don't boil them too long since they're supposed
          to stay relatively firm for the salad.
    + Cut potatoes into thin slices (you can also grate them, but
      mine usually aren't firm enough to do that without them
      turning into mashed potatoes).

    + Boil onions, garlic, vinegar, vegetable broth, mustard, and
      bay leaves for a few minutes.

    + Cover the mixture and leave it for several hours, mixing it
      occasionally, until the liquid has been soaked up by the potatoes.
    + Add oil and chives and mix well.
    + Notes
        * Some potatoes soak up more or less liquid, so you may need
          to adjust the amount of vegetable broth and vinegar.
        * You may want to add even more vegetable broth powder or
          just regular salt if you want it to be a bit stronger.
