Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add elbow macaroni and cook until al dente, about 7-8 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water to cool.
- Place large free-range eggs in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let sit for 10-12 minutes. Transfer to ice water to cool before peeling.
- In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, paprika, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth.
- Peel and chop the cooled eggs. Add to the dressing along with diced celery, red onion, dill pickles, and chives or green onions. Stir gently to combine.
- Fold the cooled macaroni into the mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Before serving, give the salad a gentle stir and garnish with extra paprika. Serve chilled.
