Follow The Directions
01
Step
1 mins
Gently place the eggs in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and cover with cold water, ensuring the water level is about 1 inch above the eggs. (1 minute)
02
Step
15 mins
Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, immediately remove the saucepan from the heat, cover tightly, and let it stand for precisely 15 minutes. (15 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
After 15 minutes, carefully transfer the eggs to an ice bath to halt the cooking process. Allow them to cool for at least 5 minutes, or until they are cool enough to handle. (5 minutes)
04
Step
3 mins
Once cooled, gently peel the eggs, ensuring no shell fragments remain. (3 minutes)
05
Step
5 mins
Using a sharp knife, chop the peeled eggs to your desired consistency. For a creamier salad, chop them finely. For a more textured salad, leave larger chunks. Alternatively, pulse briefly in a food processor for a quicker method. (2-5 minutes)
06
Step
2 mins
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chopped eggs, minced green onions, mayonnaise, dill pickle relish, chopped fresh parsley, sweet hot mustard, and spicy brown mustard. (2 minutes)
07
Step
2 mins
Gently mix all ingredients until well combined, being careful not to overmix, which can result in a watery salad. (1-2 minutes)
08
Step
1 mins
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Consider adding a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper, or a dash of smoked paprika for a smoky note. (1 minute)
09
Step
30 mins
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step is crucial for optimal flavor development. (30 minutes)
