Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces Ditalini pasta or any small pasta like elbow macaroni
  • 6 Hard boiled eggs peeled and cooled
  • ¾ cup mayonnaise for creamy texture
  • 3 tablespoons white vinegar adds tanginess
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard for a zesty touch, yellow mustard works too
  • ¼ teaspoon horseradish optional, gives a little zing
  • ½ teaspoon salt for seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika for flavor and garnish
  • ¼ cup celery finely chopped, adds crunch
  • ¼ cup dill pickle finely chopped, adds tang
  • 2 green onions finely chopped, adds freshness
  • 1 teaspoon green onion for garnish, optional
  • Sprinkle of paprika for garnish, optional

Equipment

  • 1 Large mixing bowl Used to combine pasta and dressing
  • 1 Silicone Spatula Helpful for folding the salad ingredients gently
  • 1 Measuring cups Used to measure ingredients accurately
  • 1 Measuring spoons For measuring small quantities of seasonings

Method
 

  1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain well, rinse with cold water, and place in a large bowl.
  2. Cut the hard-boiled eggs in half, separate the whites from the yolks. Chop the whites and add to the pasta.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, horseradish, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Mash the egg yolks with a fork and stir them into the dressing. The texture may be slightly lumpy, but this will blend well with the pasta.
  5. Add celery, dill pickle, and green onions to the pasta bowl.
  6. Pour the dressing over the pasta mixture and gently fold everything together until the pasta is well coated.
  7. Garnish with green onions and a sprinkle of paprika.
  8. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
