I made egg salad a few weeks ago on TikTok and everyone gave me so many good suggestions on what to do for next time. I have to say, their suggestions were on point and the resulting egg salad came out even more delicious than the last time. I know egg salad isn’t the sexiest salad around, but trust me, this one isgood.
Ingredients
10 large brown eggs (they peel easier)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon German mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons pickle juice
1/4 lemon, juiced (about 1 teaspoon)
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
Directions
Boil a large pot of water. Add the eggs to the boiled water and cook for 12 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath.
When the eggs are finished cooking, place them in the ice bath for at least a minute to cool. Peel the eggs and rinse off any excess pieces of shell.
Using two mixing bowls, separate the egg whites from the egg yolks.
Mash together the yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pickle juice, lemon juice, and water. It should form a loose paste.
Cut the egg whites into bite-sized pieces and add them to the bowl with the yolk dressing.
Add the chives and stir well to combine. Serve on your favorite bread and enjoy.
