Place the red potatoes in a large pot and cover them with water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes until they are tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly.
While the potatoes are cooking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble it into small pieces. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, yellow mustard, white vinegar, sugar, and black pepper. Stir until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
Cut the cooled potatoes into bite-sized pieces and add them to the bowl with the dressing. Toss the potatoes gently to coat them evenly with the dressing.
Add the crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, and parsley to the potato mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the potato salad warm. Garnish with extra parsley if desired. Enjoy!
