Old Fashioned Egg Salad & Quick Tips

[@ivorybow]

I got my grandmother's recipe when I was a child..she was born in the late 1800's. She used mayo, yellow mustard, fine minced spring onion and celery in small amts, and pickle relish, either sweet or dill, which ever was on hand. I like the idea of olives and I will try that next.

[@Ghost-gv1uw]

So fire man.

[@natalyazakharova3464]

I’m from Ukraine, never had egg salad sandwich, ever. I’m going to make one now! From all the recipes I saw, urs is best❤ thank u!

[@kathykrause8336]

Hi Linda.....I have worked at our rural church for n many years. When we have a funeral, the luncheon served afterwards always consisted of ham sandwitches and egg salad sandwitches. They were served open faced on a potato roll. Egg salad sandwitches always seemed to go first. To fancy them up a little bit, we added, finely chopped celery for some crunch and sliced green olives with pimentos. So good.

[@hollyaveryt3889]

My mom made this exact same recipe for Egg Salas. It’s delicious‼️‼️👍😃

[@tinkercooper1332]

Great on tosted bread as well, with a slice of fav. cheese & lettuce.. sometimes I even put a slice of onion.. THANKS for tip's diffently handy..

[@patsymathews2953]

I’m so glad to see someone besides me use an egg slicer!

[@ymagrandpa1887]

It's easier if you slice the egg length-wise first, then follow with the sideways side

[@mattiepygatt8813]

I used potatoe smasher

[@georgiaocain1502]

Made mine the same way but I put Juanita piquant peppers 👍

[@blee4974]

When I saw this it brought back when I was kid and forgot all about it. So I made it like you did and it was wonderful!! Thanks for sharing😊

[@SOMD-THC]

Thanks for the egg peeling lesson. I always have the hardest time peeling. I used to use the same type of egg slicer till I figured out that my potato masher will do the same but quicker. Also try using cream cheese along with your mayo, mustard, pinch or 2 of sugar, salt, pepper, paprika, celery seed and what ever else you use in your egg salad. Thanks for sharing your ideas and stories.

[@elaineproffitt1032]

My mother hated the whites of the egg too. She only ate the yolk. I haven't made egg salad in forever! I think I'll make some this weekend.

[@pam5389]

I use my instant pot to make my boiled eggs. 5 minutes on the manual setting and let it naturally release the steam for a few minutes before doing a quick release. They peel really good 👌. Thank you for the wonderful video 😊

[@WilletteB]

This recipe looks tasty. You're such a breath of fresh air. Even better, you're from Alabama. ❤ Egg salad is one of the only things I could keep down before my son was born. My daughter and I ate that a lot back then. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you Linda.

[@Handsthatcook]

Thank you so much WB! TFW God bless

[@mmllgg2471]

I love this show!

[@pamelagreen1307]

Thanks for the tip on the egg slicer, and I love olives too, so this looks great to me!

[@ymagrandpa1887]

YMA GRANDPA 1 second ago It's easier if you slice the egg length-wise first, then follow with the sideways side

[@64samsky]

Mayo, yellow mustard, sweet gherkin pickles chopped small and their juice, salt & pepper.....Yummm!

[@maggieg60]

I love egg salad. This inspired me to make some. 😊👍🏼

[@bonnieoliver427]

I love egg salad n tuna salad also on toast... my daddy loved it like that... yours looks really good

[@patriciaromanowski7100]

Bonnie Oliver I was just thinking about adding a can of tuna to the egg salad, so good!

[@jackiecrider8929]

Been doing that w the bread wrapper for years, thank you for showing it! It does work! Love your egg salad in w olives! God Bless You and Sam!

[@patriciaromanowski7100]

I went for about 30 yrs before I could eat potato chips. Years ago there was a company that made lg cans of them and you could have them delivered to your home. So every night watching tv we ate those potato chips.....I can still taste their unique flavor. But over it now🤗

[@Handsthatcook]

LOL!! Glad you're over it TFW God Bless

[@ashajoshi142]

Thank you ma'am. I loved the recipe and humor and story.

[@barbaraaspengen9810]

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate your video

[@tisayoung8546]

You make it just like my Mother.. she made mine with out olives I have made 4 of your recipes., All came out perfectly. Thank you,!!!!

[@Handsthatcook]

Thank you Tisa....it's good to have a stamp of approval!!! TFW God Bless, Linda

[@selmatukuna3094]

Hands That Cook 🤣

[@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042]

Tisa Young where did you get the recipes? I am watching and watching and she still has’t gotten past chopping the eggs! I’m too bored to keep watching.

[@carriejoseph9883]

I don't like eggs, but when my Mom made this years ago, I love it. Great for those summer days when it's so hot,you just want something easy.

[@lindasmilesrfree6067]

Looks delicious! I like green olives and will try it with the olives. I will probably add paprika to mine. Thank you kindly sweet lady for sharing your mom's egg salad recipe!👍😊I will definitely try it. Thank you also for the tip when it comes to peeling the eggs. I struggle with that. 💖

[@sandralistovitch7744]

I call this egg and olive sandwich you did a great job

[@HappyDancers-kx5lb]

Love this thank you for sharing

[@cathysterling1237]

Neat to know about peeling eggs. Thanks 👍

[@desireebaylor6747]

She sounds so sweet ❤I’m not good in math either but there dad is 😢🎉 and that’s great we balance out 😊love this recipe

[@CoolTaxiDriver]

I like the sound of olives!!! A friend of mine adds sweet pickle, and that’s pretty good, too.

[@johnblong3017]

I will try this 😊❤ It looks Delicious.

[@rezyness]

looks delicious! I'll have to try your version with the olives

[@lorettaharris4377]

I use a potato masher to get my eggs to the consistency I like. Much easier. I like the idea of the green olives and pimentos.

[@judymoskel8649]

try a pastry blender, if you have one. It is also very easy.

[@maiung6656]

What you said sound like fun it make me laugh.

[@pam5389]

Me too LoL. I love my old potato masher for egg salad and ham salad.

[@viviansmith8207]

Yum love idea using potato masher

[@lynnwest356]

Loretta Harris That’s what I use too.

[@kathysoule4759]

Love egg salad!! I have an air fryer that I use to Cook my eggs. Sooo easy to peel. I don't have a egg slicer. I do fine with a knife. The tme it takes to fiddle with the eggs I would have egg salad done my now. I am a sweet pickle fan. Always use sweet pickles, but I love dill pickles too. I might try dill next time.

[@mishaelriffle9618]

I love your story about your dad and growing up. Great recipe! Love green olives. I wish I had some split pea soup nobody likes in my family. I know what you mean about having a bad experience with a food and never wanting it again.

[@wylenehayter]

Wow I like the way u do it

[@consumergirl920]

This is the first time coming across one of your videos and I must say I absolutely love you! It's your stories that make it so fun.. my Grandmother was from Alabama, she grew up on a farm. She would always teach me her recipes and tell me stories and you brought me right back to her kitchen! ❤

[@Handsthatcook]

Thank you Diana! I aim to please. I hope you'll stay awhile and browse. I know you'll find other recipes you'd like to try! TFW God bless

[@annaathome2995]

The stories are good, but not in this case. People look for recipe and fun stories not about any sickness from the food you’re preparing.

[@theunboxer3986]

My mom used an old school potato masher. So do I. But I love the recipe. We also use Miracle Whip.

[@america1403]

Yes, got to use miracle whip in egg and tuna salad, otherwise its bland city

[@leolakimbler4514]

I use a potato masher too to smash my eggs

[@13699111]

Thank you for posting this video you are so right about the Mayo getting out of control ,HA!!!

[@robertaalvaradoo2487]

Looks so good!

[@TheBamamom2]

Thanks for the great tips. Peeling eggs can be a real pain. I've never had egg salad with olives, but I will try it now because it looks great! Love your family memories too.

[@Handsthatcook]

Hey sweet Tammy! A pastry cutter is a great idea. I'll try that next time. You can fancy up egg salad in different ways, like celery, onions, jalapeños, etc. This is a simple recipe (I think less is more) and this is my childhood memory and the way I like it. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@usmcrn4418]

Tammy Butler she doesn’t mention the fact that OLDER eggs will always peel much easier than FRESH eggs. It’s just the opposite if you’re trying to make poached eggs.. use very fresh eggs for poaching, they hold their shape so much better.. if you try to poach old eggs, the white will often turn into long stringy strands.. not what you want 😎

[@lorraineacosta6370]

I was already making egg salad before I started watching your video and I was just complaining to my husband about the bread ties😂😂😂♥️ than you just showed me a new way of storing my bread. Also my egg salad sandwich came out good I prefer it on toast bread 🍞 thank you for this video their so much to do with egg salad ♥️

[@ymagrandpa1887]

Great on toasted english muffins

[@bettybaisley6302]

YMA GRANDPA Y

[@lindadillon4482]

I know it's been sometime since you did this video, but thought I'd put my two cents worth in! lol I've never had a problem peeling any different type of egg. All I do is add two tablespoons of white vinegar with 1 Tablespoon of salt into cold water before boiling the egg. This was my "granma's" trick, she said. I never have had this method to fail me. I'm trying your egg salad recipe today. Looks yummy. Thanks for the recipe.

[@chelledegrasse2787]

I like to cut up 3 or 4 pieces of spicy pickled okra and mix that in. Sooo good!

[@brendachavers7605]

Your egg salad looks so good! I never thought of using olives. I've always used a dill relish. I will be trying your recipe. God bless you!

[@jeannejennings8590]

Yeah, it looks soooo good! Thank you.💕

[@Handsthatcook]

Thank you Jeanne, I hope you enjoy it!! TFW God Bless, Linda

[@dawntgslave]

I have started using olives in mine and fine the taste overrides the egg. I use pickle relish dill, and mustard to your receipt and add some cayenne red pepper

[@kakayladailey9145]

This looks better than any ive seen on here yet. .

[@judyhosey4060]

We do ours the same way, but we put a little bit of melted butter in ours - we sure do love them !

[@judyvansteenburgh9837]

Yummy! I love eg salad with green olives, potato chips and a glass of chocolate milk.

[@filomenaroberts4709]

Looks sooo good

[@alicemartinez4889]

Really wanna try this recipe... I watched you do that trick with the bread wrapper awhile back and have used it ever since... i really like that... better than those ties... quicker and neater... thank you sooo much

[@christinamoneyhan5688]

Great tip on the bread bag . Now I am hungry!

[@Handsthatcook]

LOL!!! TFW God Bless!

[@JustBrenda55]

It gets bread crumbs all over the counter when I do this. Also you have to take you bread out of the bag past where it’s been sitting or possible dropped on the floor. Just saying. I’ll leave my bread bag right side out. This is a great egg salad recipe. Looks wonderful!

[@lillieG]

Love Egg and Olive..black olive, no onion power. Thanks

[@cheryl6404]

I got an instant Pot from my sis for birthday gift this last year. I have been doing a doz eggs at a time in my instant pot..I do 2 minutes pressure and then let cook for 10 minutes and plunge in ice water....really easy to peel...

[@ericacruz1177]

I use sweet relish,mustard diced small onions,mayo salt,pepper , paprika…it’s amazing with crackers I like it better then bread 🍞 I’ll have too try your way sounds so yummy as well

[@lindadillon4482]

When I'm boiling eggs, I always add about 2 tablespoons of vinegar to water and cook. I've never had any problems peeling my eggs since I learned this method.

[@Handsthatcook]

I'll try your method out Linda!! TFW God Bless, Linda

[@bonnieoliver427]

Linda Dillon I'll try that as well TFS!! I've only used vinegar when I poach eggs.. or in egg salad

[@maryjemisonMaryjay1936]

Hands That Cook it works white vinegar not Apple 🍎cider

[@euniceswan2751]

Makes the shell soft so easy to peel.viniger that is.

[@jessig50]

Thanks for the video. I already use an egg slicer but never thought of rotating it. I place my eggs in boiling water for only 5 minutes, remove from heat and cover for 10 minutes. Then ice water bath for 5 minutes. No green in yolk and no problems peeling the eggs.

[@shebitez1]

I was boiling eggs 1 day for egg salad and I walked away and forgot it cooking on the stove. I start hearing what sounded like gun fire, I thought someone was shooting through the window in the kitchen. So lol I got on my knees and crawled my way to kitchen and it was actually my eggs exploding because all the water boiled away. Im such a bad cook. And man did I feel stupid lol

[@armandopina739]

mage mason your not a bad cook. your a gadgetless cook. timers timers timers!! or use timer on your cell phone.

[@armandopina739]

mage mason btw eggs exploding is so I Love Lucy. lol

[@buckie48192]

I had to laugh.. Sounds funny..sounds like something I would do too...lol

[@rabbycacker]

Yea I know what you mean. I watched some videos about microwaving hard boiled eggs and thought I'd give it a try. Worked good first few times until I was in a hurry and set the time for way too long. Hit the button to start and got busy at the kitchen sink with the microwave on a shelf at head height immediately around the corner 3 feet away from where I was standing. Next thing I knew there was a horrendous loud boom followed instantaneously by 3 more so close together they basically all sounded like one explosion. Needless to say I jumped for cover thinking someone came in with a shotgun blazing until I realized they Microwave was setting askew on the shelf after jumping up and hitting the bottom of the cabinet above about a couple of inches. There was a cloud of dust wafting around the general vicinity and the left front corner was off the shelf about three inches. After I choked my heart back down out of my throat and got the pulse rate down a little I realized what had happened. The timer still showed 40 some minutes and the pressure must have built up in the eggs until the first let go setting off the other 3 in the bowl. The bowl broke but the door hinges and latch held. Now I understand why they make them so robust. Thankfully the door held, coulda been bad with glass and super hot water blowin out right at my head. Blew the mica sheild out and the rotisserie turns on when you open the door. Replaced the mica sheet but haven't had time for the rotisserie fix. The door still latches tight and it still works good 2 years later. Startled the livin sh-daylights outta me for sure and can't say enough good about our old Sharp 1200 watt MW. P.S. Kinda gave me a whole new perspective on "nukeing" stuff so I don't do eggs in there anymore.

[@bonnieoliver427]

Cherry !!! YOU KNOW I HAD TO LAUGH LOL B.C. I HAVE DONE THAT BEFORE!!! and I had a timer set... so i thought LOL HAHAHA

[@bonnieoliver427]

I have started cracking my eggs like you do!!! yesss I've ALWAYS used cold water for peeling..my moma always did....makes a big difference!!

[@bonnieoliver427]

my mom always had an egg slicer! they're great! I use my tater masher lol

[@janicecongress86]

Looks delish! Thank you ever so much for sharing recipe and Tip 1 and Tip 2. :-)

[@rbg9914]

I'm going to have to try that. Looks very tasty. Egg salad is one of my favorite sandwiches. I would probably add a little onion and yellow mustard.

Just LOVE the idea of the Olive's in Your Egg Salad . I must try that . But i must have a dark brown mustard in it as well . Just me !!!!

[@eliot327]

This was mesmerizing

[@neildickson5394]

I'm making this today, with onion, and relish. Don't have olives, it will taste like a deviled egg, but that's OK, those are delicious. And, Avocado Mayo. Thought I was the only one who sealed the bread like that. Started it as a kid, never saw anyone else do that till now.

[@Soo_Blessed]

Thank you. I did Subscribe Just you talking thru this video and your tips about crack in the eggs and rap in the bread and you talking on your video just like you're standing in my kitchen talking to me I had to subscribe I loved your video

[@Handsthatcook]

Thank you for getting back with me and I'm glad you enjoyed it!! TFW and commenting God Bless, Linda

[@lindap.p.1337]

I like lime sweet pickles in my egg salad. They are so sweet and crispy. No olives for me and I hate mayo so I try not use too much. I used an egg slicer too but gave up and trashed one. The one I am using is hard to clean. 50000 chickens, wow! Thanks for the bread tying tip.

[@shelbyhensley8660]

I have about 8 laymen hens.I boil eggs by the dozens, I love them with just salt and pepper.and my dogs love them also.lol. but I will not touch a deviled egg or egg salad. I thought it was funny how different ppl can be.have a beautiful day

[@blee4974]

Your egg salad looks delicious. I hate black olives 🤢 but green is better,😂 I use the boiled egg slicer to,makes life easier 😊 Thanks for sharing

[@jackiehourie9339]

I use the cutter that you use for cutting the flour and Lard for pie pastry ,cuts up really nice to make egg salad .... But that egg cutter would be interesting to use to .

[@DianeC.]

Hi!!! Its 2020 and I just came upon this recipe of yours. I have been thinking of making egg salad. I will try your recipe but without olives because I dont eat them... Nice video!!!

[@Handsthatcook]

TY Pam!! God Bless, Linda

[@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042]

Pam Pilgrim egg and olive is an old time sandwich mix. Been making it for years. Also use green pimiento olives, and sometimes I throw in a few black olives too.

[@lydiabell6218]

I make it with avocados which is super delicious.

[@jerrilynernsting903]

Great tip on covering bread thanks...

[@theresaworley5067]

I use a pastry cutter or run my eggs over the large shred side of a box grater. Pickle relish and honey mustard are added along with mayo and fresh ground peppercorn blend.

[@pattiejune]

So good and easy, thank you.

[@virginialpinon748]

[@elizagail7873]

beautiful sandwich

[@Squee_Dow]

OLIVES!! I am crazy about olives! Why did I never think to use them in my egg salad?? I've got eggs, olives, mayo, etc. I just added another option to my COVID-19 shelter-in-place dishes. :) And without the bread, I'll be able to keep it Keto. Thanks for posting.

[@virginialpinon748]

I'm praying for no bread ability. Runs my sugar up so....imma try. Worse than quitting cigs. Lol

[@leolakimbler4514]

When I go to boil eggs I put salt in the water and then the eggs and then I boil it together and the salt helps the shells come off better. That's how I do it everybody's different
