For me, this works like a charm. In Canada, we call it a pastry blender but may be called something else in the States. You chop down on your items until they are the consistency you want. Makes perfect egg mixture for egg salad.

My elderly neighbour is always saying drop over for a coffee, so I did. Caught her making muffins. She puts all the liquids including eggs into a quart sized jar , gives a few good shakes mixing every thing before adding to her dry ingredients. So I had to try it, works real well for those times you can't use a mixer. Another I should thought of that moment. grin.
