Ingredients

  • 4 Eggs
  • ¼ cup Mayo
  • 1 tablespoon Yellow Mustard
  • ½ teaspoon Paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Begin by hard boiling your eggs. Place your eggs in the bottom of a medium saucepan. Add cold water to completely cover the eggs, by about 1 inch. Turn the heat to medium high and bring to a boil.
  • Once water is boiling, lower heat to low and cook for exactly 12 minutes.
  • After the eggs have boiled, immediately move them to a large bowl filled with ice and water. Allow the eggs to cool completely in the ice bath. About 10 minutes.
  • Peel and chop the eggs into small pieces. Place chopped eggs in a medium bowl.
  • Add mayo, mustard, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir to combine well.
  • Taste and adjust for seasoning.
  • The egg salad can be stored in the fridge for another time, or served immediately.
