A really good Southern Egg Salad. Egg salad has a myriad of additions, but most come down to a good tangy taste with the incredible edible egg. My husband said he liked mine best (I'm his second wife) because I put minced red onion in it. Truth is, I never put red onion in Egg Salad until he said that while I was making my first batch for him, and I immediately added it! Our "secret ingredient" is Old Bay Seasoning. It provides some salt and heat and then you go from there with additional salt and heat. Thanks for the post!

This is the Best. I'm not a big fan of Hot sauce so I skipped that part. I did add 1/3 Cup of chopped Green Olives patted dry, And they just set it off... Boom!!!

This sounds delicious! Can't wait to try it! And to the person who said this wasn't southern, I've lived in the south for my entire 47 years & have never seen nor heard of egg salad with grapes & pecans in it! Chicken salad, yes, egg salad, most definitely not!

Fantastic! We use rye bread and a little lettuce, cut into quarters and piled high on a platter for snack or appetizer. I don't care for sweet stuff, but my son-in-law introduced me to dill pickle relish. I never knew....

I mix the condiments and seasonings together in a separate bowl, then gently stir into the eggs, which I chop rather than grate. This gives the egg salad a more consistent flavor. I also use slightly less mayonnaise and strain the relish to prevent a runny consistency. You can always add mayonnaise to the bread. Also, if you like egg & cheese flavor combo, chop some Jarlsberg into the eggs before you stir in the condiments.

I live in Memphis and this is pretty much southern egg salad. The only difference is here they add sliced green olives.

I am a Georgia girl, born and raised here, and have lived here for 69 years, so I guess I may qualify as southern. My egg salad recipe is the same one my mother used and is pretty much like this recipe using sweet pickle relish, mayo, celery seed, and salt and pepper.I don't use mustard because I don't like mustard and I do not use hot sauce because that sounds kind of Texan to me. However, I would say that egg salad is one of those foods that people can dress up any way they want to flavor it up. As much as I believe that, I have never heard of adding grapes or pecans to egg salad from anywhere! Maybe it's good, I dunno. Southerners DO add grapes and pecans to chicken salad sometimes, though.

I used dill relish instead of the sweet relish. It was yummy.

Very good egg salad! I did what I usually do and coarsely chopped the eggs, not grate them, and added some chopped celery. I used Siracha and increased the amount. It still wasn't overly spicy, just had a subtle zing. I had this on a whole wheat wrap for lunch and enjoyed it. Walter, thanks for this different take on egg salad!

Sounds delish but what is Sweet India Relish!

5.9.20 Love egg salad and particularly liked the sweet-spicy contrast of the relish and hot sauce in this recipe. I did add a bit more hot sauce (used sriracha) just to suit my personal taste. Nice lunch today, thanks for the new recipe.

It was just like being on the farm eating Granma's potato salad Along with uncle Elmers home grown beef burgers. I can almost taste all those flavors coming through...oh yeah....

We always make it or sometimes Cheese Spread sandwich with the same ingredients excluding the eggs. Yummy.
05/30/2020
It's nice to stray from a standard recipe for a different taste.
05/31/2020
I added chopped celery to this recipe but otherwise made just as the recipe indicated. It was absolutely delicious!
06/05/2020
Easy to make even for senior citizen. Taste good. Substitute Indian relish for hot dog relish. Still good. No sugar.
06/04/2020
Yes I will certainly make this again
06/28/2020
This egg salad is delicious! I made it exactly as written, but had too much dressing! The next time I made 8 eggs and that was perfect! Very tasty!
06/12/2020
Very good! I made it mostly per recipe but didn't have Tabasco, had to use smoked chipotle Tabasco. Also, at the end added a few minutely diced yellow onion for some crunch . I served this on rye with smoked salmon and capers, open sandwich. Husband commented that is was like something you'd get at a 5 star hotel.
06/04/2020
Yes I will certainly make this again
05/30/2020
This is the best egg salad recipe I have found. It's delicious!
05/31/2020
I will make it again
05/30/2020
This is a good base. Added smoked salmon and capers. Served as an appetizer. I've tried smoke paprika and cayanne pepper for a kick. I have to give hot sauce a try. Yummy!

I love good egg salad. I use my homemade sweet pickle relish, Works great. I also think they missed an ingredient when I see a recipe like this. Where is the minced or diced onion. A must. Also I prefer using Miracle Whip in place of Mayonnaise. How ever it's done, Egg Salad Sandwich's are the best.
06/03/2020
Perfect egg salad! Could stand a little more "kick", but I like my food on the spicy side.
06/27/2020
It turned out fantastic!!!Will be making this again !!
05/30/2020
I made this according to the recipe. Very good, the best I've had.

My family loves this egg salad. With a crisp leaf of lettuce and tomato slices, we have a delicious sandwich. Take all the above-mentioned and throw on a slice of havarti with a couple pieces of bacon and my husband is in heaven.
06/01/2020
Delicious!
06/02/2020
Family liked it a lot. Will be making it again.
06/03/2020
Since I couldn't get the pickled relish, decided to do without. Tastes just as good!
06/05/2020
I made it as the recipe stated and it was delicious!!!
06/04/2020
It was great. So nice to have a change from regular egg salad.
06/21/2020
The taste was different, but, that is why I tried the recipe. I definitely won't grate it again. After mixing everything up, it was more like paste. I will try it again, but, chop the eggs next time.
06/18/2020
This is a delicious recipe for egg salad. My husband asked me to make it two times this week. He loved it served on top of baby greens with a couple green olives to give it a little briny bite.
05/30/2020
This is really a good recipe. I didn't add the vinegar as the relish had plenty. My husband really enjoyed it. I also added a slice of jalapeno cheese for extra kick!

This will be our go-to egg salad from now on. Will probably do 7 eggs or cut down a bit on mayo for firmer consistency. Had no tabasco, but sampled with Taco Bell Hot sauce (all I had). Thinking folks can just add the sauce on their sandwich, if they like. Cholula hot sauce is our favorite. Serving with lettuce on honey wheat bread. BTW, just got an egg cooker and it makes all kinds of eggs effortlessly, and peeling is actually fun. Love it!

Added paprika, cayenne pepper and extra hot sauce. Tastes pretty good now. I'll assume it will be even better in tomorrows lunch.
05/30/2020
I added dill, and Hungarian Paprika
06/08/2020
Excellent salad. I added a pinch of jalapeno relish for my sandwich. Kick it up a notch.
06/01/2020
Best Egg Salad Recipe I've every tired. Delicious!
06/03/2020
EGGlecent recipe! A keeper for sure!
02/28/2022
I have been making egg salad for years now saw this recipe thought I would give it a try. OMG! Best ever! Doubled recipe, added finely chopped rosemary(1\3 tsp), and 1\2 sm yellow onion....thanks SJ
05/15/2021
Tasty and oh, so easy. Needed to use up some eggs. Perfect solution for at least six of them!
06/09/2020
Great recipe My wife made it with pita bread and it was very mouth satisfying
06/04/2020
Did not grate the eggs, but it would be a good idea. Hard to chop small enough to make sandwiches!
06/05/2020
Love it
06/04/2020
Love the taste. I didn't have relish so I chopped up half a dill pickle and added about a Tblsp of the juice. I can hardly wait to try it using relish.
06/04/2020
great taste...
06/01/2020
I made this as written, with a bit of minced sweet onion added. Delicious and much like my Kentucky and Carolina families make it. India relish is easily googled for those who don't recognize it. Any sweet relish can be subbed for it, including hotdog relish or chow chow. Please don't berate the poster for for having a different food culture or wider knowledge of foodstuff than you happen to have. Look it up online and you may be pleasantly rewarded.
06/02/2020
I think this is very tasty, especially when you're in a hurry to fix lunch or a light dinner. I followed the recipe exactly. I usually don't have yellow mustard, I prefer honey mustard. I'll use that next time.
06/14/2020
very good
06/04/2020
Excellent! Though I left out the hot sauce
06/12/2020
This is a delicious egg salad! It's the best egg salad I have ever tasted and my whole family loves it! I added shredded cheese to it, but that was the only change I made to the recipe.
05/31/2020
Using white pepper and Dill, I lean toward the astringent taste. I love to time out the egg- cooking explained here! After the first trial and error, it gets easy.
06/11/2020
This recipe was a hit with the whole family. Perfect for a hot and humid day. Thank you!
06/13/2021
Like a little more relish than recipe. Used TBL instead of TS and doubled it.
01/22/2021
