CLASSIC EGG SALAD

Steps:
- Place the eggs in a saucepan in a single layer, and fill the pan with enough cold water so that it covers the eggs by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then remove the pan from the heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Carefully pour out the hot water; place the pan in the sink and run cold water over the eggs until the pan is lukewarm, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and refill with cold water; let stand until the eggs are room temperature, about 10 minutes. Gently crack the eggs all over and peel under running water. Dry the eggs, then chop into ¼-inch pieces.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and sugar. Add the chopped eggs, celery, scallions, and parsley. Using a rubber spatula, fold to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Serve or refrigerate until ready to use. (If you refrigerate the egg salad, be sure to taste it again before serving and adjust the seasoning; I find the flavors mellow out a bit after some time in the fridge.)
- Make Ahead: The eggs can be cooked, peeled, and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator 3 days ahead. If you keep the eggs in their shell, they can last for up to a week. The egg salad will keep well in a covered container in the fridge for about 3 days.
- Tip: When peeling an egg, start at the wider end -- there's usually a small air pocket in there, which makes the egg shell easier to remove.

THE BEST EGG SALAD
While we love a jazzed up version of egg salad, we always come back to this one for its simplicity, clean flavors and sheer nostalgia. This is the best version of a classic egg salad. It's bright with herbs and the mayonnaise-to-egg ratio is just right, making it perfectly mound-able on a sandwich or bowl of greens. If you are serving a crowd, the recipe is easily doubled, or you can just keep some extra in the fridge for whenever the craving strikes.

Steps:
- Cover the eggs with at least 2 inches of water in a medium saucepan and bring to a rolling boil. Remove from the heat, cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely.
- Mix together the mayonnaise, celery, onions, parsley, mustard, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl. Peel and roughly chop the eggs, add to the mayonnaise mixture and toss gently to combine. Serve right away, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

- To assemble a sandwich, layer a piece of butter lettuce over a piece of bread, and add a portion of the egg salad on top, then add the other piece of bread on top, slice, and enjoy!
