The Best Food’s Organic Mayonnaise used in this recipe, has a crisp flavor and the texture is smooth. I’ve used the Original version but they also make a lot of other delicious flavors such as the Spicy Chipotle and Roasted Garlic which can also be used in this recipe. Just remember depending on the type of mayonnaise used the flavor of the final salad will change a little. Here are some of my kitchen tips that you might find useful when preparing this salad;
Always use chilled or room temperature hard boiled eggs or the mayonnaise will lose its texture if the eggs are hot. If you like this a little hotter, you can add 1 teaspoon of your favorite hot sauce or add a teaspoon of thinly sliced thai green chili peppers. To prepare the coriander powder, toast 1 teaspoon of the seeds in a dry skillet until the seeds just start to brown and you can smell the fragrance of the seeds as they toast. This should take less than 60 to 90 seconds. Immediately transfer and grind the seeds with a mortar and pestle. Use as needed.
