If you’re just learning how to make egg salad, this may be the best egg salad recipe. Truly. It combines perfectly cooked hard-boiled eggs, celery and basic pantry staples. The mayonnaise dressing is creamy without being too rich or heavy, and the simple seasoning blend adds just enough savory, herbaceous spice. It’s wonderful tucked into lightly toasted bread slices or served over tender leafy greens. Or, if you enjoy egg salad as much as I do, you may enjoy this served in a bowl with a little spoon.<\/p>\n
