Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound elbow macaroni dry
  • 1/4 cup onion with juices (Use yellow onion, sweet onion, Vidalia, or white onion, grated
  • 1/4 cup carrot grated or shredded
  • 3 cups mayonnaise divided (Use your favorites, but Hawaiians use Best Foods or Hellman's mayonnaise)
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar or use sweet pickle juice!
  • 1 teaspoon sugar optional
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the macaroni noodles in lightly salted boiling water until very tender, about 10 minutes. Check the packaging for proper times - you'll get best results from very tender noodles. Drain and set into a large bowl.
  2. Stir in the grated onion, carrot, half of the mayonnaise, milk, apple cider vinegar, optional sugar, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well to combine.
  3. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, over overnight for more developed flavor.
  4. When you’re ready to serve, stir in remaining mayonnaise. Taste and adjust for seasonings. Serve chilled.
