The Best Classic Egg Salad Recipes

CLASSIC EGG SALAD

Classic Egg Salad image

Most egg salads are bland, mayo-laden affairs, but this one is vibrant and fresh.

Categories Salads

Time 20m

Yield Makes 2½ cups, or enough for 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

6 large eggs
¼ cup mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann's or Duke's
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1½ teaspoons fresh lemon juice or white wine vinegar
¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon sugar
¼ cup finely diced celery, from 1 stalk
3 tablespoons finely sliced scallions, from 2 to 3 scallions
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

Place the eggs in a saucepan in a single layer, and fill the pan with enough cold water so that it covers the eggs by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then remove the pan from the heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes.
Carefully pour out the hot water; place the pan in the sink and run cold water over the eggs until the pan is lukewarm, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and refill with cold water; let stand until the eggs are room temperature, about 10 minutes. Gently crack the eggs all over and peel under running water. Dry the eggs, then chop into ¼-inch pieces.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and sugar. Add the chopped eggs, celery, scallions, and parsley. Using a rubber spatula, fold to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Serve or refrigerate until ready to use. (If you refrigerate the egg salad, be sure to taste it again before serving and adjust the seasoning; I find the flavors mellow out a bit after some time in the fridge.)
Make Ahead: The eggs can be cooked, peeled, and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator 3 days ahead. If you keep the eggs in their shell, they can last for up to a week. The egg salad will keep well in a covered container in the fridge for about 3 days.
Tip: When peeling an egg, start at the wider end -- there's usually a small air pocket in there, which makes the egg shell easier to remove.

THE BEST CLASSIC EGG SALAD RECIPE

The Best Classic Egg Salad Recipe - All the right ingredients in all the right proportions. This rich creamy egg salad is sure to be a family favorite.

Provided by Sommer Collier

Categories Side Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

8 hard cooked eggs (peeled and chopped)
1 cup celery, (diced)
1 cup red onion, (diced)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
2 teaspoons fresh chopped dill weed, (or 1/4 teaspoon of dried)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika

Steps:

Place the eggs in a large pot and fill with cold water until it covers the eggs by one inch. Put the pot on the stovetop over high heat and bring to a boil. The moment the water starts boiling, set the timer for 12 minutes. At exactly 12 minutes remove the pot from the heat, set it in the sink, and run cold water into the pot until the pot of water remains cold. Then add ice to the pot to chill the eggs all the way through. If you have time, put the eggs in the fridge for a few hours to chill - cold eggs peel easier than warm eggs.
Tap the hard boiled eggs on the counter and roll gently to crack the shell all the way around. Peel the egg shells off. If you're having trouble, run them under cold water as you peel.
Chop the hard boiled eggs into small pieces. Dice the celery and onions.
Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix until combined. Chill in refrigerator for 30-60 minutes to allow seasonings to mature. Garnish with chives or your favorite fresh herbs.

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.
