Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Egg Salad.
Step 1
To start your delicious egg salad, gently place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with enough water to submerge them completely.
Step 2
Bring the water to a rolling boil, then take the saucepan off the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for about 15 minutes.
Step 3
This is the perfect time to daydream about how tasty your egg salad will be! After the 15 minutes are up, carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl filled with cold running water to cool them down quickly.
Step 4
Once they’re cool to the touch, peel the eggs and marvel at your handiwork.
Step 5
Next, chop the peeled eggs into bite-sized pieces and toss them into a large mixing bowl.
Step 6
Now, let’s bring all those flavors together! Add in creamy mayonnaise, zesty Dijon mustard, sweet pickle relish, a splash of steak sauce, a sprinkle of paprika, and a dash of dill.
Step 7
Mix everything together until it’s beautifully combined, and don’t forget to season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 8
For the best flavor experience, cover your egg salad and pop it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes—this allows all those wonderful flavors to meld together.
Step 9
When you’re ready to serve, give it a little extra flair by sprinkling a pinch of cayenne pepper on top for a delightful kick.
Step 10
Enjoy your homemade egg salad, perfect for sandwiches, salads, or just on its own!.
