Instructions
Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil.

Drain and return to pot; add the cider vinegar and toss until absorbed.
Let cool for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk together 1 1/2 cups of the milk, 1 cup of the mayonnaise, the brown sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt and 2 tsp pepper.
Once the cooked pasta has cooled for 10 minutes, whisk in the dressing.
Let cool completely.
Add the remaining 1/2 cup milk and 1 cup of mayonnaise, along with the scallions, carrot and celery.
Stir to combine, then season to taste with salt & pepper.
Chill for at least one hour before serving.
