Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
1 pound elbow macaroni
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
3 stalks celery, small diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 bunch green onions, greens parts only, sliced (about 1/2 cup), plus for garnish

3 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
3 tablespoons bourbon whiskey
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

I followed the recipe exactly and my salad turned out great! I used hickory smoked salt in the dressing, which gave it a really nice flavor.
