We liked it but I had expected more. The salad seemed a bit "wet" from the spring onion. Also found that it could have used more spice. Perhaps the paprika I used was too mild. Anyway, it was easy to make and was enjoyed for our lunch. Thanks for posting. Made for PAC, Autumn 2008.

I love this eggsalad!! It's wonderful. Since I'm a HUGE eggsalad fan this was just perfect. Followed the recipe without making additions. I only had regular paprika but I'm sure it would be wonderful with some of the specialty paprikas.

I used Spanish paprika. I liked it but my hubby thought it needed more mayonnaise.

Yummy! I only made enough for one portion of this but wish I had made more. It has a bit of a kick from the onion and paprika which seems to hit just as you swallow. I used smoked paprika but left out the celery as I hate it bleugh! Served with crusty white bread, this made a pleasant lunch

This was very good. I used sweet Hungarian paprika and since I had some fresh tarragon on hand, used that also. Easy and tasty. Thanks, Parsley.
