THE BEST EGG SALAD



The Best Egg Salad image

While we love a jazzed up version of egg salad, we always come back to this one for its simplicity, clean flavors and sheer nostalgia. This is the best version of a classic egg salad. It's bright with herbs and the mayonnaise-to-egg ratio is just right, making it perfectly mound-able on a sandwich or bowl of greens. If you are serving a crowd, the recipe is easily doubled, or you can just keep some extra in the fridge for whenever the craving strikes.

Let the egg stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, then drain the water and rinse the egg with cold water.
  • Mash the eggs with a fork: This will give your egg salad a light and fluffy texture.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins: Some popular mix-ins for egg salad include celery, onion, pickles, and mustard. You can also add herbs, such as dill or parsley, or spices, such as paprika or garlic powder.
  • Season to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Chill before serving: Egg salad is best served chilled. This will help the flavors to meld and the salad to firm up.
