Tips & Variations

  • Refresh leftovers: The pasta may absorb moisture over time—just stir in a little extra mayo or yogurt before serving.
  • Adjust the onion: Prefer a milder flavor? Use half the onion instead of a whole one.
  • Boost the flavor: Add extra paprika, dill, garlic powder, or even a bit more mustard for a stronger kick.
  • Optional add-in: A spoonful of relish adds a nice tangy twist.
