Paprika Egg Salad Sandwich

It’s not your grandma’s creamy egg salad because it is my dad’s infinitely more flavorful, mayonnaise-free, paprika-dusted egg salad.  And you’re gonna love it. Paprika Egg Salad Sandwich Ingredients

When I was growing up, egg salad night at my home consisted of two options- you could have my mom’s classic mayo-based egg salad or you could have my dad’s oil and vinegar-based paprika egg salad.  If you’ve only ever had the creamy one, I urge you to give this a try.  There’s a hint of tang from the vinegar and a slight kiss of sweet heat from the paprika that will have your taste buds swearing off the mayo for good.

Paprika Egg Salad Sandwich Mixing

I have an issue with eggs boiled so hard that the yolks get that greenish hue.  If you want eggs like the ones shown above (with yolks still vibrant yellow and just a very tiny bit shy of solid), follow these easy steps: bring water to a boil, gently drop eggs in for 5 minutes, then remove the pot from the heat but allow the eggs to remain submerged in the hot water for an additional 5 minutes.  After this, shock them with cold water to stop them from cooking.  Peel away.
