Ingredients

• 6 pieces Large eggs
• 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Celery, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover them with water, making sure there is about 1 inch of water above the eggs. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Once the water is boiling, cover the saucepan with a lid and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for about 5 minutes. Peel the eggs under running water to remove the shells easily.

Step 4

Roughly chop the peeled eggs and transfer them to a mixing bowl.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

Step 6

Add the dressing to the chopped eggs and mix gently until the eggs are coated. Be careful not to mash the eggs too much to maintain some texture.

Step 7

Fold in the finely chopped celery and fresh parsley, if using, to add crunch and freshness.

Step 8

Serve the egg salad immediately as a sandwich filling with your favorite bread, or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
