How to Make the Best Egg Salad Sandwiches

To make perfect egg salad sandwiches, begin by making hard boiled eggs. I share how to make them in the Instant Pot as well as the classic hard boiled egg recipe on the stove top that I’ve used since high school. For your egg salad, you’ll need hard boiled eggs, mayonnaise, salt and pepper. Peel your eggs and add them to a bowl. Using a fork, simply mash the eggs until they are in small pieces. Add the salt and pepper. And then stir in the mayonnaise until well-combined. Then, spread your egg salad onto your favorite sandwich bread. For the bread, I love to use a good sourdough bread. It is also delicious if you have lightly toasted it as well.
