The Best Macaroni Salad You'll Ever Make (Deli-style) | Food Wishes

[HK-nicn]

Hi I’m a 16 year old who’s always loved when my mom made this for me. I stayed home from school today and was in charge of making food, so I decided to make this for the first time! Your video and recipe link was very easy to follow and im so excited to see how it’s going to taste! It’s in the fridge right now absorbing together!

I had to come on here 6 years after this video was made (it is 5/8/2022) just to say that I was in desperate need for a good macaroni recipe. I have followed other recipes and they just came out dry and heavy. So I was a little Leary to try yet another recipe that I found on social media. I searched YouTube and this recipe was the first to pop up. I liked the ingredients and I liked that the YouTuber explained in detail how to make this. I followed it to a T but it was a big party and I had to make it for 60 people so I simply doubled the ingredients. I have to say this macaroni was an absolute hit. I made 2.5 lbs of this macaroni salad and it was all gone! My picky daughter loved it, and some of the women were asking me for the recipe but I didnt want to give out my secret! Haha. Love loved this macaroni recipe. Hands down it will not disappoint. I promise!

So easy....so amazing! I made this last month for a family gathering and it was devoured! Making it again today for a visiting friend...last time accompanied Chef John's grilled sticky ribs (highly recommended), this time next to burgers and dogs. A delicious macaroni salad...no bells or whistles, just damn good!

It’s refreshing to listen to someone whose genuinely funny, but I’m really here bc these are solid recipes, with just the right amount of specific information and shots on how to make the food (vs showing off the cook). THANK YOU.

Oyez oyez oyez…. This recipe is outstanding!!! Totally different from other ordinary macaroni salad. The vinegar, jalapeño, and onion give it a really delightful kick!! Will keep this in my repertoire…. Thank you for sharing!

Every year for the past 3 years, I use this recipe. Everyone loves it

I've made this recipe many times, it's so good! It's a great base for experimenting too. Sometimes I add pickle juice and hard boiled egg, or salami or bacon or ham, or diced up cherry tomatoes and some balsamic with feta or fresh mozzarella and basil...

Usually I just make it as shown, and it's always a hit at picnics or when I help my girlfriend meal prep. I love this recipe!

[reshmeeramdin]

Watched the whole video just because i love the way you explained everything... its like listening a song...

[Ajb]

I followed your recipe exactly...tasted the mix before adding the macaroni...Oh No, I put too much vinegar😣
with some faith... placed in the fridge overnight, and this morning I have just tasted THE BEST MACARONI SALAD EVER!!!!
AMAZING😋

I’ve made this for a number of bbq’s now and it’s always a hit. Thank you, Chef John!

[Stardusted]

I made this today for the first time. I’ve been making macaroni salad for a long time. (I’m 66) it is FANTASTIC!! I followed your recipe to the Tee and my husband said he thought it was the best he’s ever eaten! Thank you for sharing! We will make this all the time now!

[lisakrenn]

This is by far the best macaroni salad! Made some for dinner tonight. This is a keeper!

[missmonasuzette]

It's that time of year again! (Memorial Day weekend). I came back here to watch this video again before I make this AMAZING Macaroni salad again that I've made at least 5 times since I watched it. Everyone I've ever served it to has raved about it. Thank you Chef John! You're the best!!

I made this last night to let it sit overnight. I tried it today and it is without a doubt the best macaroni salad I've had. I did add a couple more tbsp of sugar though, 1/4 cup was perfect for my taste. The sauce was just enough to coat everything, unlike the stuff you get in the store that is like soup. I will definitely make this again.

Just made this recipe 3 days ago and it's all gone. There is just my husband and I and we ate it all
in 3 days! It is the first time I'd ever made macaroni salad and this is by far the best I'd ever tasted.
I will be making it over and over that's for sure. For me what made it so great was the little green
onions that was so tasty. Now that vinegar made it extra tangy and so next time I might try a little
more sugar or my husband suggested doing the apple cider vinegar with the mother! So I may try
that. Thank you so very much for sharing this recipe.
