If there’s a treat that I’m in love with, it’s egg salad.
It’s a bite you don’t forget,
And it’s the happiest there is.
The kids and us love toasts with a lot of egg salad,
This is our treat.
Especially on weekends,
We all peel the hard-boiled eggs together,
And in a few quick minutes they become the most indulgent salad there is.
This is a bite that doesn’t require a lot of work,
The secret of the texture is in the technique of preparation,
That every addition to it is significant for its wonderful taste,
And it’s a bite that makes you feel how much love is on the plate.
Every house prepares its egg salad slightly differently,
Mine has one surprising ingredient that makes its texture insane and one that you can’t stop eating.
Don’t be surprised if everyone gives up the bread and just chooses to eat it as is, simply with a fork.
This is a homemade egg salad that calls for good and peaceful days for all of us,
It’s prepared in a few quick minutes and with lots of love.
Happy, tasty and joyful Saturdays to all of us 🙂

Egg salad
Ingredients
Suitable for a large egg salad, 6-8 indulgent dishes
- 10 boiled eggs
- 1 cup cottage cheese (250g) (you can replaced with tahini – not raw tahini / cream cheese / vegan cheese)
- A teaspoon and a bit of salt (depending on the saltiness you like)
- ½ teaspoon sweet paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon white pepper
- 1 tablespoon smooth mustard (for those who like it, really adds a lot)
Preparation
Mix all the ingredients with the grated eggs to a uniform texture of a perfect egg salad. Taste it and adjust the amount of salt as needed.
Served alongside fresh vegetables, crackers or good bread and many Shabbat table treats.
A little extra from me:
- The salad can be kept in the fridge in a sealed box for 2-3 days.
- You can add mayonnaise to the salad. If you choose to add it, then I recommend putting about 2-3 tablespoons as an addition to what’s already in the salad.
- I really like to sprinkle scallions or chives on top of the egg salad.
