If you’re a fan of the deli-style macaroni salad , you’ll love this easy to make recipe! Do you remember your old neighborhood delicatessen? I sure do. In my old neighborhood, there were several. However, everyone seemed to have their favorite one. I’m going back many years remembering this, but one thing I will always remember is the delicious salads they’d have. The salads were all made by the mom and pop who owned the place. As most delicatessens were owned and run by people of German heritage, naturally the food was geared toward that cuisine. Personally, I love macaroni salad–any way you give it to me–but I always liked the deli kind. Try this delicious recipe today for that authentic deli style taste!
Ingredients:
8 oz elbow macaroni
½ cup white vinegar
½ cup sugar
½ cup diced green pepper
2 tsp celery seed
¼ cup mayonnaise
Instructions:
Prepare macaroni as directed on package; drain and cool. Mix the vinegar and sugar in a large bowl, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Mix in the cooked elbows. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Drain off any excess liquid from the chilled elbows. Add the green pepper and celery seed. Add the mayonnaise and stir until well coated. You may add additional mayonnaise if you wish. Chill until ready to serve, and enjoy!
