Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 large eggs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup dill pickle relish
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1/4 cup red or yellow pepper, finely diced
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
Sriracha, as needed
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Toast, vegetables, lettuce or radicchio, for serving
Fresh basil and cilantro, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the eggs, bring the temperature down to a simmer and set a timer for 12 minutes.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, relish, celery, peppers, scallions, mustard, vinegar, Worcestershire, vinegar, paprika and celery salt in a medium bowl. Season with sriracha to your preference and salt and pepper.
  • Run the eggs under cold water until cool enough to handle. Peel the eggs and place them in a large bowl. Use scissors to roughly chop them into chunks.
  • Add the mayonnaise mixture and season with salt and pepper. Fold in the sauce while mashing the eggs with a fork, like you would guacamole. You may want more or less sauce depending on the desired consistency.
  • Serve on toast, with vegetables or spooned into lettuce or radicchio cups. Top with basil and cilantro if desired.

I'm allergic to celery, so I substituted chopped cucumber instead. It turned out great!

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some chopped pickles and relish to give it more flavor.

This egg salad is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.

I've tried many egg salad recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. It's creamy, flavorful, and has just the right amount of crunch. I highly recommend it!

This egg salad is a devilish delight! The addition of Dijon mustard and cayenne pepper gives it a nice kick, and the celery and onion add a refreshing crunch. I served it on toasted rye bread with a sprinkle of paprika, and it was the perfect lunch.
