Tips:

  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh cilantro and parsley add a burst of flavor to the egg salad. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried cilantro and 1/2 teaspoon of dried parsley.
  • Hard-Boil Eggs Perfectly: To prevent overcooked eggs, place them in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and cover. Let stand for 10-12 minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water.
  • Mash Eggs Gently: Use a fork or potato masher to mash the eggs. Avoid over-mashing, as this will make the egg salad too smooth.
  • Use Good-Quality Mayonnaise: Mayonnaise is the base of the egg salad, so it's important to use a good quality mayonnaise. Look for a mayonnaise made with real eggs and oil.
  • Season to Taste: Taste the egg salad and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste.

Conclusion:

Cilantro egg salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its fresh herbs, creamy mayonnaise, and tender eggs, cilantro egg salad is a surefire hit for any occasion.
