    Cooking Tips for Egg Salad Recipes

    What is the best way to cook eggs for an egg salad?

    For best results, cook the eggs until they are hard-boiled, then plunge them into cold water immediately after cooking to make peeling easier and prevent a green ring from forming around the yolks.

    How can I add more flavor to my egg salad?

    Incorporate fresh herbs like dill, chives, or parsley, add a dash of mustard or a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and consider mixing in finely chopped pickles or capers for a tangy twist.

    How long can I store egg salad in the refrigerator?

    Egg salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days. Make sure to keep it chilled and avoid leaving it at room temperature for extended periods.

    What are some healthy additions to egg salad?

    To make your egg salad healthier, try adding diced vegetables like celery, bell peppers, or onions for crunch, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for creaminess, and include leafy greens like spinach or arugula for extra nutrients.

    Can I make egg salad ahead of time?

    Yes, egg salad can be made ahead of time and is often better after the flavors have had time to meld. Prepare it a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
