Notes

Mayonnaise: I only use about 1/4 cup but you can use more if you want a creamer salad. 
Relish: I love dill relish but you can use sweet if you prefer.
Mustard: I’m old fashioned about my egg salad and use yellow mustard, you can use dijon to give it a more elevated taste.
Celery: Some people like to add diced celery to their egg salad for a crunch. 
I put my egg salad in the refrigerator to cool if I can wait that long. It seems to get better if it sits for a day. Egg salad will stay good for 4-5 days in the refrigerator. Mine never lasts that long 🙂
