Boil the Eggs - In a large pot, add enough water to cover the eggs by 1-inch. Bring water to a low boil, around 200°F (93°C). Carefully place the eggs in the hot water, and boil for 30 seconds. Place the lid on the pot and reduce the heat to low. Cook on a low simmer for 12 minutes.

Chill the Eggs - In a medium bowl, add 4 cups of water and ice to make an ice bath. Once the eggs are done cooking, immediately transfer them to the ice bath and chill for 15 minutes.

Peel and Chop - Crack the shell and peel the cooled eggs. Use a chef’s knife to chop the hard-boiled eggs coarsely.

Mix - In a medium bowl, combine chopped eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, celery, red onion, chives, salt, and pepper—season with salt and pepper to taste.
