Deviled eggs - egg salad
 

What do you put in your deviled eggs and/or your egg salad?

Occasionally (okay, frequently) my "nice" egg whites get mangled, so my deviled eggs turn into egg salad - but it still tastes good.

For my easy egg salad for sandwiches - its chopped up hard-cooked eggs, Hellman's mayo, and sweet pickle relish.

The rest of the family is not as fond of the sweet pickle relish in the egg salad as I am, but - if I'm fixing it - they will eat it!

*** Egg Salad: yellow mustard, DUKEs Mayo (ONLY), salt, pepper, & EITHER dill cubes or sweet cubes.

*** Deviled Eggs: the same minus the pickles.

*** Dukes Mayo is made in Greenville, SC by C.F. Sauer from a very old lady's recipe and it is the best made.
***
*** It is not sweet like Hellman's.
*** Most Southerners will not touch Hellman's.

My egg salad: chopped eggs, yellow mustard, mayo (at moment Best Foods Light), sweet relish, salt and pepper.

Deviled eggs: same minus the relish~

*Around here, we don't have Hellman's or Duke's~~ ;)

My deviled eggs and egg salad are made the same way; with minced celery (pealed first), green onion, thyme and a dollop of prepared mustard. Mayo is a battle my husband and I cannot resolve - I like Best Foods and my DH Miracle Whip. So, I use 1/4 Miracle Whip to 3/4 Best Foods to keep us both happy. Egg salad I put in a tiny amount paprika and deviled eggs I sprinkle lightly with paprika.

My deviled eggs are always received well. I don't care for chunks or pieces of anything in them. A couple of drops of Tabasco, a couple of drops Worcestershire sauce and enough mayo to nicely hold together - not too much as then they are soupy and unappealing. Paprika sprinkled on top.

I only use M. Whip and a touch of yellow mustard. The pickle relish sounds good. I'll have to try that.

Hellman's, yellow mustard, and dill relish, not sweet relish.

Miracle Whip, mustard to taste and the piece d'resistance - Horseradish sauce (just a teeny bit, the creamy stuff, not the ground stuff).Take it from a half Swede who knows her Deviled Eggs! Great Aunt Clara and Aunt Selma used to make the best egg salad sandwiches and deviled eggs - same thing! Egg Salad used to be on Limpa Bread (a dark bread with the taste of Heaven. Edie

Best deviled eggs I've ever had were recently at a dinner. She said Marzetti's Slaw Dressing instead of mayo. I found a jar of it at Walmart, but have not tried it.
