Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp finely chopped shallot
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh tarragon or to taste
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp tarragon vinegar can be substituted with white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper or to taste

Instructions

  1. BOIL THE EGGS:
  2. If you need to boil your eggs, place them in the bottom of a large pot and cover with cold water (enough to cover the eggs by about an inch or more). Place pan over HIGH heat and bring to a boil. Once water is boiling, let boil for 15 seconds, turn heat OFF.
  3. Leave pan on the burner and let pan sit, covered, for 15 minutes.
  4. Remove eggs with a strainer to a bowl filled with ice water. Let sit in ice water for 1 minute, then remove to paper towels to dry. Use immediately or refrigerate.
  5. MAKE THE SALAD:
  6. Peel and chop eggs and add to a large mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients and stir together with a wooden spoon to combine thoroughly. Cover tightly and refrigerate for several hours or up to a day before eating (for maximum flavor).

Notes

  • ** If you prefer a bit of sweetness in your egg salad, add a teaspoon or so of sweet pickle relish (or chopped sweet pickles).
