Scale

- 1 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

For added flavor, use apple cider vinegar instead of distilled white vinegar.
This potato salad can be served warm or chilled according to your preference.
