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.
BEST EGG SALAD
Being a hardcore egg junkie, I have found this to be my favorite egg salad recipe. It's delicious on toasted whole wheat bread, topped with crumbled, crispy bacon and with a side salad of baby spring greens. It's best to use the freshest eggs available, but fresher eggs are also much harder to peel than not-so-fresh ones. The technique I use for boiling and peeling in this recipe is practically foolproof and also prevents overcooking, which can cause the yolks to turn gray.

Steps:
- Set eggs in a deep saucepan and cover with at least 3 inches of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Simmer for five minutes, then remove saucepan from heat, cover, and let sit for 17-20 minutes, depending on the size of the eggs (shorter time for smaller eggs).
- Drain the hot water and fill the pot with cool tap water and a handful of ice cubes to cool the eggs rapidly.
- Take each egg and tap it against the sink or other hard surface, cracking the shell gently all over (but do not remove the shell yet).
- Return the eggs to the cold water for 15-20 minutes. During this time the shells will loosen.
- Pour off the water and peel the eggs. Rinse to remove bits of shell and dry carefully with paper towels.
- Chop the eggs into small or medium pieces and transfer to a bowl. Add mayonnaise, mustard, onion, and parsley, mix well.
- Squeeze lemon juice onto the salt to dissolve and add to season the egg salad mix. Finish with a few turns from the pepper mill and a dash of Tabasco (if you prefer a little heat).
- Mix well and serve immediately, or refrigerate, covered, for up to 3 days.
