Not Wet Egg Salad
Source of Recipe
My own, with help from folks at Chowhound.com
Recipe Introduction
I love deli egg salad. Nubby textured with no big hunks of egg, just really finely chopped up bits. And almost a dry consistency � not really dry, but dry enough to scoop up with an ice cream scoop and hold it�s shape. MY egg salad on the other hand has always been too wet. So I went to chowhound.com with an SOS. They gave me some pointers and low and behold � I made perfect egg salad!
List of Ingredients
Basic Recipe:
Hard boiled eggs
Duke�s Mayonnaise
Pepper
Mustard
Hot sauce
Recipe
Here are the tricks �
1. Add salt at the point of eating � not as you make the egg salad
2. Don�t use hot eggs. Chill them in the refrigerator before making the salad. Don�t rinse the eggs off. Make sure they are very dry.
3. Mayo, not Miracle Whip :(. And a TINY little amount!
4. Mash eggs with potato masher, not a knife.
