Tips:
- Use high-quality mayonnaise. The mayonnaise is the base of the egg salad, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with fresh eggs and oil, and that has a smooth, creamy texture.
- Hard-boil your eggs perfectly. Overcooked eggs will be dry and crumbly, while undercooked eggs will be runny. For perfect hard-boiled eggs, place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes. Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Chop your ingredients finely. This will help the egg salad to come together more easily and will make it easier to eat.
- Add your favorite mix-ins. The roasted red peppers and capers in this recipe are just a few ideas. You can also add chopped celery, onion, pickles, or herbs.
- Chill the egg salad before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and will make the egg salad easier to spread.
