Pasta Salad Recipe
Pasta salad is the savior of the days when there is no answer to the question of what to cook, and when people are told to add a salad to the guest menu. I make it often, especially in the summer. I often change the ingredients according to the ingredients I have at home. If there is corn, I add corn, sometimes I do not add pickles, sometimes I use plenty of pickles, sometimes I use dill, sometimes I use parsley. Since all kinds are very delicious, such small changes will never reduce their taste.
I use regular yogurt, not strained yogurt. When it is filtered, it becomes too dense to be mixed. Likewise, its flavor is more intense and the yogurt taste is dominant. In my pasta salads, I aim for the mayonnaise and yogurt flavors to be felt equally but not to overwhelm the taste of other ingredients. Let's see if you will try and like it with my recipe.
