For best flavor, use high-quality mayonnaise. Homemade mayonnaise elevates this salad to another level. Adjust the amount of mayonnaise to your preference. Start with less and add more until you reach your desired consistency. If you don't have a salt-free herb and spice blend, use a combination of dried herbs such as thyme, rosemary, and oregano, along with a pinch of garlic powder and onion powder. To prevent the celery from becoming soggy, add it just before serving if you are making the salad ahead of time. Consider adding a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of vinegar for extra brightness.
