  • In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. While the water is heating, cut the potatoes into quarters or slices. When the water starts to boil, add the potatoes and cook until they can be pierced with a fork but are not too soft. Drain the potatoes and run some cold water over them.
  • While the potatoes are cooling, cut the bacon into small pieces. Place the bacon in a cold skillet and cook over medium heat until crispy. While the bacon is cooking, mix the vinegar with the water, sugar, salt, pepper, and mustard. Set aside. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain on a paper towel, reserving the drippings in the skillet.
  • In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic and cook until fragrant and translucent. Add the vinegar and mustard mixture and turn the heat to high, cooking for three minutes or until the mixture has reduced to 1/3. Remove from heat and add the cooked potatoes. Gently toss the potatoes in the dressing and let sit for 5 minutes. Add the bacon and dill and gently toss again. Transfer to a serving bowl.
