quick: any ideas/recipes for a tasty egg salad?

[salin]

have the eggs a-boiling... but my recipe is tres boring. Any ideas for things to add to make it more savory?

[StClone]

1. Try adding Pickle Relish

A touch of dill and some onion flakes and mustard (ground)in the salad dressing (Miracle whip) or Mayo. Place on leaf lettuce and bun.

4. I like equal parts mayo and Miracle Whip,

touch of yellow mustard, salt, pepper and pinch of sugar.

[salin]

6. only have the dressing

no real mayo in the house.

[Booberdawg]

11. add a splash of Worchestershire sauce to that

I usually add a little garlic powder too.

[twilight]

8. please no *miracle whip*

That stuff sucks and its GM'd to boot just like Best Foods mayo (the only REAL mayo.!). :puke:

The black olives really do make it tasty - just look for something else to make it all stick together ... :D

[otohara]

2. Sliced Green & Black Olives

w/mayo, paprika, S&P -

[trof]

3. one word

TABASCO!

[salin]

5. mmmm - great ideas:

so far here is what I have done cut up half a red onion ....
pulled down the mustard, basil, paprika, and some parmasegian (sp) cheese, and mustard. Hadn't thought of a tad of tobasco and sugar.

Will serve with bacon on toast... MMMM

Thanks! :D

7. Some black pepper and a dash of tabasco

pump up any dish. Other things eggs go well with: fresh dill.

9. Go rent "What's Up, Tiger Lily?" and find the recipe in the menu...

And please DO use Miracle Whip! :D

26. Ha! You beat me to it!

I can never think of egg salad without thinking of What's up Tiger Lily!

[Deja Q]

28. And now I have to ask you this:

Do you know why a comma was inserted into the title of that movie? A comma wasn't originally there, you see, and if you start thinking about it you'll figure out why they added it in there... :evilgrin:

10. My egg salad is never the same twice

but it's always good. I throw in

eggs (duh)

miracle whip, regular or light -- NOT mayo, too little flavor

some sweet relish, green onions, Dijon mustard, Lawry's salt

ham or bacon if I feel like it



I use one of those hand-cranked food processor thingies; everything goes in, a few turns, and voila! I only use enough Miracle Whip to hold things together, I like it chunky.

12. Eggs

it is very important to have eggs. Im pretty sure Mommy always put eggs in it.

13. less is more

I like eggs, Best Foods, and a bit of sugar. Whole grain bread and a nice leaf of lettuce.

However, if I were going to jazz it up, I'd use dill weed, black pepper, fine dice of red bell pepper, maybe some chopped celery leaves and a dash of pepper sauce.

14. CURRY PASTE..

Preferrably Patak's Indian curry paste. If you don't have that, then I imagine just about any curry paste or powder would work fine...I also use the Patak's in my deviled eggs... yummy.

[grasswire]

15. I use curry...

....when I make deviled eggs. Finely minced onion, a bit of dijon, Best Foods, a bit of sugar, and curry powder.

[opiate69]

16. I love curry...

Hell, I love it so much, I'd almost be tempted to put it in breakfast cereal. :9 I actually have been using it all summer long as a base for my barbecue marinades... a little soy sauce, some curry, garlic, Emeril's essence (got the recipe from the web, and keep a container of it handy at al times..), shallots, dijon and whatever else strikes my fancy...

[grasswire]

27. the recipe for....

...emeril's essence is available on the web? Hmm.

[opiate69]

29. Yep...

from www.foodtv.com
Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
Yield: about 2/3 cup

18. okay... what is "Best Foods"

? Two references in the thread.. and it only means the name of a grocery store to me :shrug:

[opiate69]

19. Best foods

It is the west coast's name for Hellman's mayonnaise. For some reason, east of the Mississppi it is called Hellman's, and in the west it is Best Foods.

on edit: even the jingles are the same "Bring out the (Hellman's/Best Foods) and bring out the best"

17. I already made (and ate... yummm!) the egg salad

at the spice rack... I was eyeing the curry... changed the mind. Now I see your recommendation. Next time curry goes in!

20. grated cheddar cheese

is my favorite addition...along with mayo, mustard and salt and lots of fresh cracked pepper!

Yummmm! :-)

24. A small amount of an excellent curry and crisp bacon

Sweet Dungeness crab and fire-roasted red peppers,

Carmelised Vidalia onion and julienne strips of copacola, or spicy pepperoni,

Prosciutto, tarragon and Dijon mustard,

Chipotle peppers in adobo, a squeeze of lime and chopped fresh cilantro,

A small amount of extra sharp cheddar and diced ham...

[demgurl]

25. I know I am weighing in late, but here goes.....

Take some eggs and boil them. Get some real mayonaise, green peppers, salt, pepper, cayenne, onions and potatoes. Lots of potatoes. Boil the taters and then add some of the rest to taste!!!!!
