Instructions

1
Pat the dill pickle slices dry with a paper towel, then finely chop them.
2
Finely chop the red onion and fresh dill.
3
Chop the hard-boiled eggs and place them in a large mixing bowl. A quick way to do this is by pressing them through a cooling rack set over the bowl.
4
To the bowl with the eggs, add the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard.
5
Add the chopped pickles, red onion, fresh dill, and a splash of pickle juice to the bowl.
6
Gently fold all the ingredients together until just combined.
7
Taste the egg salad and season with salt and pepper if desired. Note that the saltiness of the pickles may mean you don't need much salt.
8
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
9
Serve on your favorite bread as a sandwich, or enjoy with a spoon.

Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Chop pickles and red onion finely so they distribute evenly throughout the salad and don't overpower individual bites.
Add the pickle juice last—start with 1 tablespoon and taste before adding more to avoid making the salad too wet.
Chill the egg salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to let flavors meld and improve texture.
Reserve a few pickle slices or dill sprigs as garnish for visual appeal when serving on bread.

Substitutions

Mayonnaise → Greek yogurt or sour cream (creates a tangier, lighter version)
Fresh dill → dried dill (use 1 tsp dried for 1 tbsp fresh; add it before chilling)
Dijon mustard → whole grain or spicy brown mustard (adjusts flavor intensity)
