Instructions
- Wash hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
- Boil eggs: Place eggs in a small pot. Add water until there is 1" of water above the eggs. Place on the stove on medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Remove eggs from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 12 minutes to hard-boil the eggs. Wash hands after touching uncooked eggs.
- While eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath. Place ice and water in a bowl. Set aside.
- When eggs are done, remove with a slotted spoon and place in the ice bath for 10 minutes.
- Peel and chop eggs.
- In a small bowl, combine eggs, green onions, celery, pepper, dry mustard, mayonnaise, and pickle relish. Stir until well-blended (see notes).
- Place ¼ cup of egg salad between each bun.
- Serve 1 sandwich. Serve immediately, or keep cold at 40 °F or lower.
