How do I remove excess salt in egg salad?

1. Add More Ingredients:

* Dilute the saltiness: Add more mayonnaise, chopped celery, onion, or other ingredients that will dilute the saltiness.

* Sweeten it up: A touch of sugar or honey can help balance the saltiness.

* Add acidity: A squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of white wine vinegar can help cut through the saltiness.

2. Make a New Batch (If Time Allows):

* Start fresh: If you have time, the simplest solution is to make a new batch of egg salad with less salt.

3. Serve with Other Foods:

* Balance the flavors: Serve the egg salad alongside dishes that are less salty, such as a sweet salad or a fruit side.

4. Make It Into a Sandwich:

* Bread absorbs some salt: Making a sandwich with the egg salad can help absorb some of the excess salt.

Tips:

* Taste as you go: Start by adding a little bit of your chosen ingredient and taste as you go.

* Don't overdo it: You don't want to mask the flavor of the egg salad entirely.

* Experiment: Find what works best for your taste buds!
