I am going to try some of these suggestions next time. How does everyone do
their egg salad? I do not make it often and do not have a down pat recipe.
I'll remove the yolks and do a large dice on them, same with the whites,
gently mix together. Then I'll add mayo, small dice of celery, miniscule
dice of onion and a small pinch of cayenne pepper. Stick in fridge for an
hour and then eat all of it. How does everyone else make their egg salad?

Whoops, forgot to mention the garlic. I usually smash one clove to peel the
skin and do a very fine dice before adding to the mix. I've never thought
about bell pepper. Hmmm...

My version of egg salad is simple. I remove and cream the egg yolks
with the mayo; chop the whites (not a fine chop....the whites are
clearly recognizable). Chop a small amount of celery and a very small
amount of onion. Add a small amount of salt, maybe a small amount of
cayenne (depends on my mood). Mix the egg-mayo with everything and put
in the fridge for an hour or more. Serve with a selection of olives on
the side and a few pieces of dark rye bread.

Where's the mustard? Gotta have mustard.

I leave out the cayenne (and garlic, which was mentioned in a later post).
I add a little bit of cider vinegar, mustard, and finely-crumbled bacon. I
might sprinkle it with chopped parsley or paprika. Olives aren't amiss
either, they're just not a "must-have".

I'm pretty muich a purist. Mash boiled eggs with a fork, add a couple
T's Miracle whip, a squirt of Plotchman's mustard, a grind or two of
black pepper, salt to taste, sprinkle of celery seed and chopped celery
including leaves. Keeps well in fridge - wonderful on saltines.

That's almost my formula, but I use mayo and add a little minced onion.

I think Damsel mentioned the mustard before. I'm going to try it. Seems
like several folks use it in egg salad. I'll pass on the bacon (way too
much fat for me, considering the mayo) but it sounds good.

Michael, have you tried "Just 2 Good" mayo from Hellman's or Best Foods?
Just 2 grams of fat per serving, and the closest I've found to the real
thing. I keep both that and the full fat style on hand, but I find I'm
using Just 2 Good more often.
Oh, I use just a squirt of Plochman's yellow mustard in my egg salad.
Perks up the flavor a bit.

I have not tried 'Just 2 Good' but will keep on the lookout for it. I
either make my own mayo or I buy Hellman's. The regular kind. I can NOT
stand the low/no fat mayonnaise the manufacturers put out. I use Benecol as
a butter substitute for toast, bagels and to put on veggies. I like it and
it is tasty. I never use low/no fat ingredients to cook with unless a
recipe specifies it.

I can't stand those low/no fat mayonnaise products, either, but the Just 2
Good was a really pleasant surprise.

I hate to say this, but after years of fiddling around with egg
salad recipes, I have gone back to the basics (after tasting it
that way when I made it for my daughter): eggs, mayo (was
Hellman's, dunno what I'm going to use now), salt, and (for me)
freshly ground black pepper. Maybe with lettuce. And there
should be barely more mayo than is necessary to get the mixture to
stick together. I hate egg salad that is gloppy with too much
mayo.
