The Masters Egg Salad recipe is a classic sandwich served at the Augusta National's concession stands that you will want to make at home.
Many copycat recipes add all kinds of ingredients like, vinegar, mustard, celery or seasonings but that is not how Augusta National does things. Everything is done simple and perfect just like the egg salad they serve to their Masters patrons.
To create this recipe I went right to the source, the Masters egg salad sandwich bag. They list every ingredient and surprisingly there are only a few simple ones.
TIPS FOR MAKING
The key to creating an authentic egg salad just like you would get on the course is to chop your boiled eggs very small. Then it is important to mix all the ingredients until the yellow of the eggs and the mayonnaise create a creamy smooth salad. Of course, if you have ever been to the Masters you know it's always served on soft white bread!

So good!

any tips on hard boiling the eggs? thanks!
Gina
David, I just happen to have tips on boiling the eggs on my Best Spicy Southern Egg Salad post. We have had chickens and always found it challenging to peel farm fresh eggs. I have several tips and tricks you can read about. If you have any other ideas, I'm always open to finding new ways to peel an egg.

Gina, what brand of mayo is used in the Masters egg salad sandwich?
Gina
Good question. I have an egg salad sandwich in the green wrapper that I brought home from the National right now. I like to keep up with their ingredients to keep my recipes as close to the original as possible. It doesn't say what brand, but I am sure it is a good quality restaurant grade mayo. Ingredients in the mayo are as follows: soybean oil, water, corn syrup, egg yolks, distilled vinegar, salt, spice, calcium disodium, slat, and a few other preservatives.

Over the years we have always heard Hellmann's or Sauer's (Duke's)was the brand mentioned the most. If you are not sure then nobody alive can give us the correct answer. haha Thanks!
PS: Go Tiger, Go Scottie!

Pat, I used to think Duke's but I might be a bit prejudiced because it's a southern classic mayo. Over the years a lot have people have commented on their opinion on what mayo. The only thing I have had more comments on about a particular ingredient is my copycat Texas Roadhouse Chili, beans or no beans. There are a lot of passionate Texans out there about their chili. ;) And, on that note, we might need to make this chili tonight. Augusta weather is turning really cold! This has been one wild weather tournament.
Pat
Ok, last mayo question. Since Sauer's owns Duke's are the two brands made with different ingredients or are they the same with two different labels? We are a Hellmann's/Sauer's family and it is very rare for us to use Duke's. Are we just fooling ourselves about not caring for Duke's that much? haha
