CLASSIC MACARONI SALAD

When this pasta salad arrived on the picnic table, and where it came from, is a mystery. It may have been an offshoot of another creamy summer salad, the potato kind. Crisp celery, peas, and scallions punctuate this version, which is sprinkled with bits of ham and ground pepper and nutmeg in this classic macaroni salad.

MARTHA GOOCH MACARONI SALAD

Growing up in Nebraska we had all kinds of Martha Gooch macaroni and pasta. It was on all the shelves. Something we all grew up with was the Martha Gooch Macaroni Salad. It was a boxed mix but ended up at every putluck and picnic I remember going to. I made it for my family quite often. Then MG was acquired by American Italian Pasta Company and they discontinued the mix. :( Apparently I am not the only one bummed by this as I found a copycat recipe. My photo.

Steps:

  • Cook macaroni in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water. Drain in a colander.
  • While macaroni is cooking combine all remaining ingredients in a bowl large enough to hold the salad. Mix well and let set until ready to combine with macaroni.
  • Add cooled macaroni and mix well. Chill for several hours and serve.
  • This macaroni salad was great to add any other ingredients you wanted. Any other veggies or meat. This stuff was so good! This recipe is really close but not quite exact. I really miss the real stuff!
  • If desired you can use all mayo or salad dressing. For the boxed mix, I always used half of each.

2 cup(s) dry ditalini or salad rings
1/2 cup(s) mayonnaise
1/2 cup(s) salad dressing (like miracle whip)
1 teaspoon(s) each, onion and garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon(s) each, dry mustard and turmeric
1 teaspoon(s) vinegar
1 teaspoon(s) sugar (i add another)
1 tablespoon(s) garden seasoning (tones or perc)
- sometimes after chilling i find this needs a little extra salt and a splash of vinegar.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Sift confectioners' sugar into a bowl. Whisk in almonds; set aside. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats (such as Silpats), and mark circles using a 1 1/2-inch cutter dipped in flour.
  • Put egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium speed until foamy, then beat in salt. Beat in granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon at a time, until medium-soft peaks form. Transfer mixture to a large bowl.
  • Using a rubber spatula, fold half the almond mixture into the egg white mixture until just incorporated. Fold in vanilla and remaining almond mixture until just incorporated. Firmly tap bottom of bowl on counter to eliminate air pockets.
  • Transfer mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip (such as Ateco #806). Pipe mixture into marked circles on prepared baking sheets. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until macarons are slightly firm and can be gently lifted off parchment (bottoms will be dry), 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool on sheets 5 minutes. Transfer macarons on parchment to a wire rack; let cool completely.
  • Spread 2 teaspoons buttercream on flat sides of half the macarons, then sandwich with remaining halves, keeping flat sides together. Refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes, before serving.

1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 cups (4 ounces) sliced almonds, finely ground, or almond flour
All-purpose flour, for dipping
3 large egg whites
Pinch of salt
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 recipe Swiss Meringue Buttercream for French Almond Macarons

SWEET MACARONI SALAD

A sweet out-of-the-ordinary dressing makes this macaroni salad special. My aunt gave me the recipe and it has become one of my favorites. I occasionally leave out the green pepper if I know that people don't like it, and it still tastes great. -Idalee Scholz, Cocoa Beach, Florida
