Comment préparer Traditional Egg Salad

Gently place 6 large eggs into a medium pot filled with 3-4 quarts of cold water.
Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, immediately remove from heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for exactly 13 minutes.
After 13 minutes, drain the hot water and run the pot under cold water for 30 seconds to stop the cooking process.
Gently tap the eggs all over on a countertop to create cracks in the shells.
Peel the eggs under cold running water. The shells should slip right off.
Roughly chop the peeled eggs into a medium bowl.
Add 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the chopped eggs.
Stir gently to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the egg salad to chill thoroughly (below 40°F).
Serve your delicious egg salad on crisp lettuce with your favorite bread or crackers!
