EGG SALAD WITH A TWIST
I was challenged to an Egg Salad "Cook Off" by another Zaar chef. So here is my recipe. It's a little saucy so if you want it less saucy just add less of the Mayo and olive juice. You can eat this on crackers or as a sandwich. It's very easy to make. Since olive juice has salt in it, I did not add more salt to the recipe. I have a sensitivity to pepper so I did not add that either. You can add both if you want to. Prep time includes the time for boiling the eggs. Cook time is refrigeration time. Times are approximate.

THE BEST EGG SALAD
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.

Steps:
- Cover the eggs with at least 2 inches of water in a medium saucepan and bring to a rolling boil. Remove from the heat, cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely.
- Mix together the mayonnaise, celery, onions, parsley, mustard, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl. Peel and roughly chop the eggs, add to the mayonnaise mixture and toss gently to combine. Serve right away, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Tips:
- Choose the right eggs. Use large, fresh eggs for the best results.
- Hard-boil the eggs perfectly. Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then cover the pan and remove from heat. Let the eggs stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, depending on how hard you want them to be. Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Use a variety of ingredients. Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients in your egg salad. Some popular additions include celery, onion, pickles, bacon, and cheese.
- Season to taste. Be sure to season your egg salad to taste with salt, pepper, and mayonnaise. You can also add other seasonings, such as mustard, paprika, or dill.
- Chill before serving. Egg salad is best served chilled. This will help the flavors to meld and make the salad more refreshing.
