Better to say "salt to taste" and NOT list "1 teaspoon." If we're having to follow a recipe for something basic, it's bc we are learning to cook or don't cook much, or old and forgetful. I added about 1/2 the amt of salt listed, 1 teaspoon, and was going to add more after tasting. But I had already ruined them. The changes I made helped some, but were still too salty. So, it is better to not list an amount.

I hadn't made deviled eggs in years, and wanted to use dill pickle relish, so used this recipe. But for me the quantity of salt was way too much, 1 teaspoon. I know it says salt to taste. I guess I should've started with a 1/4 teaspon and keep checking. I used just over 1/2 of a measuring teaspoon, then tasted. Yikes!!! Way too salty. I had to search for how to fix it. I didn't have more egg yoke to add, and the other suggestion of more mayonaise would add to the problem at 240mg of salt per serving. I tried the lemon juice and sugar idea, and it only helped a little. Bad part is I was taking these to lunch and they were expected. I did use extra fine ground salt, so maybe bc the crystals didn't have a lot of empty space between each other, but still, it tasted like it only should have 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
