Egg salad is one of those things that I love to eat, but I almost never make. It's one of those simple, homey meals that is a lunch staple everyone should know how to make.
If you don't have whole seed dijon mustard on hand, you can substitute for yellow mustard, although I am a firm believer in those little mustard seeds ability to transform both texture and taste.
Our potato masher must have gotten lost in transit in the last move, so when faced with the need to smash the eggs, I substituted in a beater from an electric masher, and it worked fantastically. I used a firm twist and smash method that broke the eggs apart while still leaving behind some yummy egg bits and not completely obliterating it to a mush.
