CLASSIC MACARONI SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta according to package directions for al dente. Transfer the pasta to a colander, rinse it with cold water and drain well. Set pasta aside to cool while you prepare the rest of the salad ingredients (see note). Stir the pasta occasionally to prevent it from sticking together.
• In a large bowl, combine the red bell pepper, celery, onion, pickles and hard boiled eggs.
• To make the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon, sugar, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
• When the pasta is completely cooled, add it to the bowl with the other pasta salad ingredients. Pour on the dressing and stir until everything is well combined.
• Cover and chill macaroni salad in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving. It will keep for up to 3 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

CLASSIC MACARONI SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Make and peel 6 hard-boiled eggs. Try my recipe to make Steam Hard Boiled Eggs.
• Put a large pot of salted water and heat on the stove to boil the pasta. Follow the cooking time and the package instructions of your pasta brand. Adding salt is optional but recommended.
• Gradually add pasta, stirring to separate it, and return to a boil. Boil uncovered, stirring occasionally until you have tender macaroni that is al dente pasta.
• While the pasta is boiling, chop the fresh ingredients: celery, green onions, dill pickles, and chop the eggs into small pieces.
• Drain the large pot of pasta, and pour it into a very large bowl.
• Into the large bowl, add the chopped ingredients to the warm cooked pasta. Add celery, green onions, chopped pickles, pickle juice, chopped eggs, black olives, mayonnaise, yellow mustard, sea salt, and black pepper.
• Stir well to combine, and chill for several hours or overnight. The warm pasta will absorb the pickle juice as it sits in the fridge, that is what makes it so good!
• Optional: Slice a couple of eggs and places them on top with sprinkles of paprika to make it pretty.
• Serve macaroni pasta salad in a large bowl or inexpensive paper Chinese takeout containers (order online), great for picnics and parties. Keep this macaroni salad chilled at all times in an airtight container, or serve immediately.

THE BEST MACARONI SALAD EVER

Steps:

• Cook the macaroni in lightly salted water according to the package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool. Set aside.
• Mix together the mayo, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Splash in enough milk to make it pourable. Splash in pickle juice for extra flavor. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Set aside.
• Place the cooled macaroni in a large bowl and pour in 3/4 of the dressing. Toss and add more dressing if you'd like. (The dressing will seem a little thin, but it will thicken up as the salad chills.)
• Stir in the roasted red peppers (or pimentos), olives, pickles, and green onions. Add more of any ingredient if you'd like more stuff going on! At the end, splash in a little more pickle juice and stir.
• Chill for at least 2 hours before serving. Sprinkle with sliced green onions to serve!
