Pasta Salad with Mayonnaise

A classic German-style pasta salad with tender spirals, crisp vegetables, tangy pickles, and a creamy mayonnaise dressing balanced with yogurt and mustard. It is bright, savory, and even better after a short rest.

Zubereitung

1
Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cook the fusilli according to the package directions until just tender, usually 9 to 11 minutes. Add the frozen peas during the final 60 seconds.
2
Drain the pasta and peas thoroughly, then rinse briefly under cold water until no longer hot. Shake off excess water and let them drain for 5 minutes so the dressing will cling.
3
While the pasta drains, cut the pickles, carrot, and red onion into small, even dice. Finely cut the chives and set the vegetables aside.
4
In a large bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, vinegar, salt, and black pepper until smooth and lightly tangy.
5
Add the drained pasta and peas, diced pickles, carrot, onion, and chives to the dressing. Mix gently with a wide spoon until every spiral is coated without breaking the vegetables.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Stir once before serving; if the salad has thickened, loosen it with 1 tablespoon of water and adjust the salt to taste.

Warum dieses Rezept gelingt

The combination of mayonnaise and yogurt gives the dressing body without making it heavy, while pickles, mustard, and vinegar cut through the richness. A brief resting period lets the pasta absorb the seasoning and brings the flavors together.
