Egg Salad Recipe
Description
Egg Salad is made by mixing peeled, chopped hard-boiled eggs with mayonnaise for creaminess and smooth texture. Finely chopped red onion adds a mild sharpness and crunch, while kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper season the salad appropriately. A sprinkle of sweet paprika on top provides a subtle smoky, earthy note and color contrast.
The salad is best chilled before serving to allow flavors to meld and provide a refreshing experience. It can be used as a sandwich filling, spread on crackers, or enjoyed on its own. The simplicity of ingredients keeps it flexible and easy to customize.
