MACARONI SALAD WITH DILL AND HAM

Steps:

• To mellow the minced onion, soak it in cold water while you make the salad.
• Bring a large pot of cold water to a boil over high heat and salt it generously. Add the macaroni and boil, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain the macaroni in a colander, put in a serving bowl, and toss with the milk. Allow the macaroni to cool slightly while you make the dressing.
• For the dressing: Whisk the vinegar, mustard, the 2 teaspoons salt, and black pepper to taste in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream to make a smooth, slightly thick dressing. Whisk in the sour cream.
• Drain the onions, pat dry, and add to the macaroni along with the ham, peas, celery, and dill. Add the dressing and fold to coat the pasta evenly. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

EASY MACARONI SALAD WITH HAM RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Cook, drain and rinse macaroni and put in fridge while you dice up cheese and ham. Mix together cold macaroni, cheese, and ham in a bowl. In a separate bowl mix mayo and mustard. (If it is too tangy you can add a teaspoon of sugar. Mix it all together and chill or serve immediately. I sometimes substitute the cooked shrimp instead of ham and it's delish. Add a dash of Old Bay seasoning if you use shrimp.
