Como fazer Aunt Louise Macaroni Salad

In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup sugar and 2 tablespoons yellow mustard.
Add 1/2 cup white vinegar.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then immediately remove from heat.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour with 2 tablespoons of cold water until smooth.
Slowly whisk the egg mixture into the hot vinegar mixture, stirring constantly to prevent curdling. If it curdles, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve.
Cook 1 pound elbow macaroni according to package directions. Drain well.
Pour the dressing over the cooked macaroni and gently toss to coat.
Stir in 1 (4 ounce) jar of pimentos, drained.
Allow the salad to cool completely in the refrigerator.
Once cooled, gently fold in 1/2 cup of cubed sharp cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of finely chopped sweet pickles (optional).
