how to keep egg salad from getting runny
Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Just make egg salad with only mayo, salt, pepper, and the chopped eggs. When you make a sandwich, add a little chopped celery or whatever other chopped vegetable you put into egg salad. That way the egg salad does not get watery, and the veggies you add are nice and crisp. I just put the egg salad on the bread, top that with the veggies, then top that with a slice of bread with a thin coating of mayo -- everything tastes nice and fresh and the topped bread with the mayo holds everything together.
