00:00 Let's make egg salad.
00:01 It's gonna be pretty classic,
00:02 but there is a secret ingredient.
00:04 Can you guess what it is?
00:06 While you think, let's start boiling our eggs.
00:08 First step in egg salad is to cook your eggs.
00:11 Everyone has their way to make perfect hard-boiled eggs.
00:14 This is my way.
00:15 I place them in the water while it's cold and still.
00:18 I bring it up to a boil,
00:20 then I reduce it to simmer for nine minutes.
00:23 Then remove 'em from the heat,
00:24 let 'em sit about a minute,
00:25 and then shock 'em in ice water.
00:27 That'll make 'em easy to peel
00:28 and they'll be perfectly cooked.
00:30 All right, I'll give you a hint
00:32 as to what the secret ingredient's gonna be.
00:34 Think tangy.
00:37 All right, now we're just gonna give 'em a chop.
00:39 Egg salad is just one of those classic staples.
00:42 It's like the thing to eat
00:44 when you don't have any groceries in the house,
00:46 but you always have eggs.
00:48 First ingredient, obviously, mayonnaise.
00:50 Next, a little bit of Dijon.
00:54 Sweet relish.
00:55 A little bit of paprika, as my grandmother said.
00:59 A little pinch of dried dill.
01:02 A little cayenne to balance out that sweetness.
01:05 And now, the secret ingredient,
01:07 steak sauce.
01:10 Just a little bit, don't freak out.
01:12 I kinda like this idea.
01:14 I'm excited to try it.
01:15 Little bit is going to take care of this.
01:17 It's only like a teaspoon.
01:19 And now we just stir it all up.
01:23 Okay, looking good.
01:25 Gonna taste it first before I season it
01:27 with any more salt and pepper.
01:29 You do taste it.
01:34 Even though it's only like a teaspoon,
01:37 it does kinda add that little kick.
01:40 Does need a little salt and pepper.
01:42 All right, now I'm gonna build my favorite way
01:48 to eat egg salad, which is just on a little sandwich.
01:52 I have lightly toasted my bread
01:54 because the egg salad is really soft,
01:56 so I like a toasted bread with this.
01:58 And then you kinda pile it on.
02:00 A little lettuce for a fresh crunch,
02:03 and then our top bread.
02:04 Now, my first official bite of magical egg salad.
02:13 That's good.
02:17 It's like a savory tang that just hits right,
02:20 you know what I mean?
02:21 This is definitely a delicious and surprising twist
02:24 to an egg salad.
02:26 Give it a try and let me know what you think.
02:28 Anything else I need to say?
