Tips:
- Use hard-boiled eggs that are perfectly cooked. Overcooked eggs will be dry and crumbly, while undercooked eggs will be runny and unsafe to eat.
- Mash the eggs with a fork, not a food processor. A food processor will over-mix the eggs and make them too smooth.
- Add mayonnaise, mustard, and celery to taste. The amount of each ingredient you add will depend on your personal preference.
- Add other ingredients to your egg salad, such as chopped pickles, onions, or bacon. Be creative and experiment with different flavors.
- Serve egg salad sandwiches on your favorite bread, with your favorite toppings. Classic toppings include lettuce, tomato, and bacon.
