Ingredients

  • 7 eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp

    parsley

    freshly minced

  • 1 small shallot minced
  • 1 stalk celery finely diced
  • 1/4 tsp kosher sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp celery salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp paprika heaping
  • cayenne pepper pinch

Instructions

  •  Fill a saucepan with as much water as needed to reach the bottom of a steamer basket.
  • Heat the water on high heat until it boils. Gently place the eggs on the bottom of the steamer basket. Cover and reduce heat to medium-high. Cook for 12-14 minutes for hard boiled eggs.
  • Remove the eggs from the pan with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl full of ice water. Allow to cool for 8 minutes. Remove, crack and peel the eggs, then transfer a container and place in the refrigerator to completely cool.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, parsley, shallot, celery, salt, celery salt, pepper, paprika, and cayenne. Whisk until smooth. Using a fork, smash the cooled eggs in the container, then pour into the mixing bowl. Toss until combined. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
