Recipe for spicy and creamy macaroni salad
Serious Mealtimes / Vicky Wasik
When it comes to macaroni salad I have to admit that I haven’t always been the most critical person. As a mayonnaise lover those bowls of mayonnaise-filled pasta that you can find at almost any deli have always appealed to me. It’s like eating regular mayonnaise but without the guilt/shame/disgust that comes when pasta isn’t part of the (almost) two-ingredient equation. But I’m under no illusions. I know that these aren’t “good” macaroni salads and having spent years experimenting with pasta salad recipes to accompany my barbecues I know how much more flavorful and exciting a macaroni salad can be.
True to form my take is mostly a creamy-mayo delivery system. But it also takes some cues from higher-end pasta salads delivering pumped-up flavor and nuanced dressing that offers far more than its deli cousins.
