MACARONI SALAD
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook according to the package directions, adding 2 minutes. Drain and place into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the apple cider vinegar and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise, milk and granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Fold into the macaroni along with the carrots, scallion whites and light green parts, celery, onion, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Before transferring to a serving bowl, give it a good stir and add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Garnish with the scallion greens.

CLASSIC MACARONI SALAD
Creamy dishes like Alex's macaroni salad are a perfect match for fresh dill. "I love dill with mayonnaise," she says. "It's grassy and light."

Steps:
- Make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, soy sauce and hot sauce until smooth. Drain and dry the red onion and stir it into the dressing along with the bell pepper, scallions and a generous pinch of salt.
- Make the pasta: In a large pot, bring 4 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Add a generous amount of salt. Add the pasta and cook, stirring from time to time, until al dente (chewy but not hard or raw tasting), 6 to 10 minutes. Drain; do not rinse the pasta. Spread it out on a large baking sheet to cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes.
- While the pasta is still warm, add it to the bowl with the dressing and let sit at room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Stir in the dill and basil just before serving and taste for seasoning.

SWEET MACARONI SALAD
A sweet out-of-the-ordinary dressing makes this macaroni salad special. My aunt gave me the recipe and it has become one of my favorites. I occasionally leave out the green pepper if I know that people don't like it, and it still tastes great. -Idalee Scholz, Cocoa Beach, Florida
