- I got another 4th of July recipe for y'all.
0:05
Real simple, real easy.
0:08
It's gonna be great to tote to...
0:10
If you're invited to a friend's house
0:12
for a cookout or something,
0:15
and you're asked to bring a dish,
0:16
this is perfect for that.
0:19
And like I said, easy, easy, easy, easy.
0:26
So I've got my elbow macaroni cooked,
0:30
and I don't like it al dente.
0:35
I mean, I like for it to be soft in my mouth.
0:42
So I'm going to add our mayonnaise.
0:47
Now when I make salads,
0:50
any kind of macaroni salad,
0:52
tuna fish salad, any kind of salad,
0:55
I'll use dill pickles.
0:57
But this one calls for sweet pickles.
1:02
So that goes in next.
1:05
And then a little pomelo
1:08
straight from the jar.
1:14
a little slivers of fresh carrots,
1:20
a little diced fresh celery,
1:27
and some chopped boiled eggs.
1:32
I love macaroni salad.
1:34
In fact, I made the other day,
1:38
I had some little shrimp left,
1:40
and I had cooked some macaroni for something,
1:44
and I made a macaroni shrimp salad that was so good.
1:48
- [Camerawoman] Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm.
1:51
So I'm just gonna stir these ingredients up,
1:55
mix those up real good.
2:01
Just put a little pepper in there.
2:02
(pepper grinder buzzing)
2:05
And after we get everything together,
2:10
I'll test it for salt
2:13
to see if we need salt,
2:15
or a little bit more mayonnaise even.
2:24
Theresa, I went to...
2:29
I think I'm gonna want a little bit more mayonnaise.
2:32
- [Theresa] Imagine that.
2:38
Because I didn't add all the macaroni.
2:41
- [Theresa] Look, I always have it ready for you.
2:45
(Theresa mumbling) (Paula chuckling)
2:48
- You know me. - Mm-hmm.
2:53
and you hadn't said a thing-
2:56
- About my fingernails.
3:00
- [Theresa] I saw them.
3:01
- You saw them, but you didn't say
3:02
nothing about them. - I didn't say anything
3:03
because I'm not used to seeing you-
3:05
I went to the wedding in Albany.
3:08
- I wanted you- - Bubbles,
3:09
it's granddaughter's wedding.
3:11
- And you got fancy- - This weekend.
3:13
And I tried real hard to be decent.
3:21
It takes like five minutes to put them on.
3:27
I've never been crazy about long fingernails though,
3:31
if you worked in a kitchen.
3:32
- [Theresa] Yeah, that's hard.
3:33
- But I decided for the wedding
3:36
(chuckling) that I do it.
3:52
And I did, I added more mayonnaise,
3:55
and I didn't use all my macaroni noodles.
4:11
I'm gonna add just a little salt, a little pepper,
4:15
and then I'm gonna add some
4:19
coarse ground pepper. (pepper grinder buzzing)
4:26
And potato salad, macaroni salad, pimento cheese.
4:30
You are going to find
4:31
that after it goes into the refrigerator for a day,
4:35
it's gonna soak up any moisture,
4:37
and you're probably gonna need to add
4:39
more mayonnaise to it.
4:55
These pots get heavy,
4:57
and these are not real heavy,
4:59
but they get heavy when I'm holding them with one hand.
5:13
Now you can garnish this with
5:18
a little paprika, a little sliced boiled eggs,
5:25
whatever you would like,
5:30
and it'll be delicious for that 4th of July cookout.
5:40
The dill pickle gives it a totally different flavor.
5:44
I mean, the sweet dill pickles.
5:47
But you can use the sweet or the dill,
5:52
So happy 4th of July, y'all.
5:58
