California Salad With Hard Boiled Eggs Recipes

EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Boil the Eggs - In a large pot, add enough water to cover the eggs by 1-inch. Bring water to a low boil, around 200°F (93°C). Carefully place the eggs in the hot water, and boil for 30 seconds. Place the lid on the pot and reduce the heat to low. Cook on a low simmer for 12 minutes.
• Chill the Eggs - In a medium bowl, add 4 cups of water and ice to make an ice bath. Once the eggs are done cooking, immediately transfer them to the ice bath and chill for 15 minutes.
• Peel and Chop - Crack the shell and peel the cooled eggs. Use a chef's knife to chop the hard-boiled eggs coarsely.
• Mix - In a medium bowl, combine chopped eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, celery, red onion, chives, salt, and pepper-season with salt and pepper to taste.
