Notes

Green rimmed egg yolks indicate the eggs were over cooked. Be mindful of the steps to ensure you do not overcook your eggs.

Fresh eggs are a bit harder to peel because the membrane shrinks with the age of the egg. But with egg salad, this really doesn’t matter. I chop my egg salad pretty course. Enjoy!
