Kahala's Seafood Macaroni Salad
Ingredients
  • 1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti, broken into 2-inch pieces
  • 4 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1/2 cup frozen petite peas, thawed
  • 1 cup frozen fully cooked salad shrimp, thawed
  • 1/2 cup crab meat, cooked
  • 16 ounces mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • paprika to taste
Instructions
1
Begin by filling a large container with salted water, then bring it to the point where it's vigorously bubbling. Next, add your pasta and cook until it reaches a satisfying firmness, taking around 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the pasta from the water with a slotted spoon, and transfer it to a spacious bowl.
2
In this bowl, combine the pasta with beaten eggs, sliced carrots, frozen peas, cooked shrimp, and flaked crab meat. Cover the bowl with a lid, then place it in the refrigerator to chill.
3
To prepare the dressing, simply combine mayonnaise, milk, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and sugar in a bowl. Taste the dressing and adjust its seasoning with salt, pepper, and paprika as needed.
4
Mix the chilled pasta with the prepared dressing until everything is well incorporated. If your salad appears too dry, add a bit more mayonnaise and a splash of milk or water to give it the desired consistency. Cover the bowl again, then refrigerate until you're ready to serve.
