Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

8 hardboiled eggs, chopped
1-2 tablespoons light mayonnaise (I tend to go lighter on the mayo and heavier on the mustard, you decide based on your taste)
1-2 tablespoons your favorite mustard (I used a caramelized onion mustard from Stonewall Kitchen that was in my fridge and is completely awesome)
2 celery stalks, small diced
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons capers, drained and roughly chopped
sliced tomatoes
thin sliced red onion
additional capers

Steps:

In a large bowl combine chopped hard boiled egg, mayo, mustard, celery, capers, salt and pepper. Gently stir until thoroughly combined. Serve on toasted bread of choice (bagels, rye, flatbread crackers are all my favorite) along with sliced tomato, sliced red onion and capers sprinkled on top.

Tips:

Use hard-boiled eggs that are fresh. Older eggs will have a more pronounced sulfur flavor, which can make your egg salad taste off.
Chop the eggs finely. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the salad and make it easier to eat.
Use good-quality mayonnaise. A cheap mayonnaise will make your egg salad taste bland and watery. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with real eggs and oil, and that has a thick, creamy texture.
Season the egg salad to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add herbs, such as dill or chives, or other vegetables, such as celery or onion.
Chill the egg salad before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to spread.

Conclusion:

Creamy egg salad with dill and capers is a classic dish that is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs. With its creamy texture, tangy flavor, and fresh herbs, this egg salad is sure to please everyone at the table.
