Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and refrigerate until ready to use.
Boil the eggs on medium-high. Once the water boils, turn off heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes, covered. Drain and immerse in cold water. Peel eggs and slice lengthwise.
From the 8 egg halves, separate the yolks from the whites. Roughly chop the remaining egg whites and the rest of the eggs.
Mix the separate egg yolks with the mustard, mayo, vinegar, and sugar. Mash until free from lumps. Fold in the rest of the ingredients including the cooked pasta.
Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with scallions and sprinkle with paprika as desired.
