How To Make macaroni salad
-
1Boil the pasta as directed on the package. After boiling the pasta, chill it. (You don’t want to add mayo to warm pasta!) I drain the hot water from the pot and add ice and ¼ cup water to the pasta, stirring until melted. Drain as usual and add to salad bowl.
-
2Add mayonnaise and mustard to the cooked pasta, stir well.
-
3Add celery, radish, eggs, and green onion to the bowl.
-
4Salt and pepper to taste. Chill overnight. The pasta will absorb the flavors and some of the mayonnaise; if necessary, stir in a little more mayonnaise one large spoonful at a time.)
-
5Garnish with Paprika and serve with a sprig of Dill.
-
6Other ingredients that may be added 1 large carrot, grated 1/2 small bell pepper, diced
