Introduction
A macaroni salad packed with tuna and fresh ingredients that stays delicious and maintains a firm texture even when cold. Perfect for meal prep, the rich, special sauce coats the ingredients perfectly.
Step 1
Bring a pot of water to a boil, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and boil the macaroni for 1 minute longer than the package instructions.
Step 2
Drain the water, drizzle with 2 teaspoons of olive oil, mix well, and let cool.
Step 3
Bring a pot of water to a boil, add 1 teaspoon of salt, add the egg, and boil for about 10 minutes. Once boiled, soak in ice water for 10 minutes to cool, then peel the shell.
Step 4
Thinly slice the onion and soak in vinegar water for about 10 minutes. Thinly slice the cucumber, rub with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and let sit for 5 minutes.
Step 5
Drain the oil from the tuna. In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, milk, grated parmesan, sugar, vinegar, shiro-dashi, and salt/pepper, then mix well.

Important Notes
Since macaroni firms up as it cools, the key is to boil it for 1 minute longer than the time stated on the package. 💡
Coating the boiled macaroni with olive oil prevents the noodles from sticking together. 🍳
If excess water remains on the vegetables, the flavor will become diluted, so be sure to squeeze the moisture out of the onion and cucumber thoroughly before mixing. ⚠️
