- Put the eggs in a pan of cold water, bring to a boil, take of heat, cover and let and let them sit for ten minutes. Take each egg out of the hot water with a slotted spoon, and run cold water over it. When cool enough, peal the egg. A trick is to roll it on the counter, putting just enough pressure on it until you hear a cracking. Do the same with the other. Chop the eggs, put them in a small bowl and refrigerated.

- Get a large bowl. Put the potatoes in it. Cut them up in the bowl. The pieces donât have to be uniform. Add the chopped egg, the pickles, onion celery, and a little pepper and salt to taste.
