Instructions
To hard-boil the eggs, place them in a saucepan and cover with cold water, ensuring they are fully submerged. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water or run them under cold water to stop the cooking process. At the same time, cook the pasta according to the package directions, reducing the cook time by 2 minutes so it’s al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Set aside.
6 large eggs, 8 oz. dry macaroni pasta
Once the eggs are cooled, peel and slice them in half. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Finely chop the egg whites and set aside.
Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, and seasonings to the bowl of egg yolks.
1 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp. white wine vinegar, 1 tsp. table salt, 1 tsp. black pepper, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1/2 tsp. paprika
Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth.
Stir until the mixture forms a creamy sauce.
Add the remaining ingredients and toss until evenly combined.
3 slices cooked bacon, 1/2 cup finely diced red onion, 1/2 cup finely diced celery
Taste and adjust with more salt and pepper if needed.
