Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise (best quality such as Hellmann’s or Duke’s)
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1½ teaspoons fresh lemon juice or white grape juice vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • â…› teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • ¼ cup finely diced celery (from 1 stalk)
  • 3 tablespoons finely sliced scallions (from 2 to 3 scallions)
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Instructions

  1. Place the eggs in a saucepan in a single layer and cover them with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes.
  2. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely, about 10 minutes. Once cooled, gently crack the shells under running water and peel them. Chop the eggs into small pieces.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and sugar until smooth. Add the chopped eggs, celery, scallions, and parsley. Gently fold everything together until well combined.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to use.
