This blog post doesn’t need my small talk because it is ALL about the recipe.

And you are basically getting a 2 for 1 here. 1. you will learn how to perfectly hard boil some eggs and 2. you will have the BEST egg salad after to eat. And hot tip – get some bacon because chopped up bacon INSIDE the egg salad is a game changer guys.

What ingredients you need to make egg salad:

• Apple cider vinegar
• Eggs (at room temp if you can but not necessary!)
• Mayo of choice
• Dijon mustard
• Sea salt and black pepper to taste
• Optional: cooked bacon chopped up (so good)

How to make the BEST egg salad and hard boil eggs:

1. Fill a medium pot of water enough to cover the eggs and add the vinegar and bring to a boil
2. Gently drop in your eggs
3. Cook the eggs over a medium boil for 7 mins for runny eggs or 10-12 min for a fully cooked center
4. Place cooked eggs into an ice bath for 5 mins (a large bowl with ice and water)
5. Then crack and peel eggs
6. Grate the eggs with a cheese grater not a medium bowl and mix with mayo, dijon, bacon and salt and pepper
7. Serve over your favorite piece of bread, bagels or crackers
