Southern Egg Salad
Ingredients
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet India pickle relish
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 dashes hot sauce (such as Tabasco®)
Instructions
1
Place eggs in a saucepan, submerge them under water, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook slowly for 5 minutes, maintaining a low temperature throughout the process.
2
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit undisturbed, covered with a lid, for 5 minutes to allow the eggs to cool down slightly.
3
Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water and let them chill in the refrigerator for 5 minutes, which will help to stop the cooking process.
4
Once chilled, crack the eggs open and peel them off their shells.
5
Transfer the peeled eggs to a medium-sized mixing bowl and combine them with mayonnaise, relish, mustard, sugar, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Mix the ingredients together until they are well incorporated.
6
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
