I have been making lots of egg salad for some reason, mainly because I like it. I have been trying many versions and this is the best version for me.

It is a PITA to make. Not so much making it but the cleanup afterward. It relies on a few tools I have bought thru the enablers here and from elsewhere.

First hard boil about a dozen eggs. I ate two here as well as my wife so I will start with 8.

Let the eggs cool for 20 minutes after boiling them and peeling will be way easier.

Now we are ready to start.

Use a potato ricer to make the eggs very fine into a consistency that you could never do by slicing.

Believe me, once you do this you will never go back to using a fork.

next we will chop pickles and white onions. I prefer Famous Dave's spicy garlic slices.

Use this food chopper to chop. I was enabled here to buy this.

I will say this is definitely worth buying. I love it.

OK, now it is time to mix it up.

8 hard boiled eggs
1/4 cup chopped pickles
1/4 cup chopped white onion
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 Tbsp yellow mustard
1 Tbsp smoked paprika
Fresh cracked pepper to taste

It might look funky but it tastes so good.

This will make many egg salad sandwiches. This will not disappoint.

I believe it's EGG salad...

Want to step it up another notch ?? After peeling the eggs slice them in half (think deviled eggs here)... Now cold smoke them for a few hours... By slicing in half the yolks get some smoke too... Now carry on with the recipe as you have it...
