Warm Red Potato and Corn Salad

In a large saucepan, combine potatoes, enough water to cover, and, if desired, the 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Bring to boiling; reduce heat.

Cover and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes or until potatoes are almost tender. Add corn; cook for 1 to 2 minutes more or until potatoes are tender.

Drain well; set aside.

Meanwhile, for dressing, in a large skillet cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon, reserving drippings in skillet.

Drain bacon on paper towels.; set aside.

Add onion to the drippings in skillet.

Cook over medium heat until onion is tender. Carefully add vinegar, broth, the 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the crushed red pepper. Bring to boiling; reduce heat.

Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.

Stir in parsley and gently stir in potatoes and bacon.

Cook, stirring gently, for 1 to 2 minutes more or until heated through.
