Start by removing the leaves and core from the cauliflower head. Break it into florets and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the cauliflower florets. Cook for about 5 minutes, until just tender. Do not overcook as the florets need to hold their shape.
Drain the cauliflower and immediately rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside to cool completely.
While the cauliflower is cooling, peel the hard-boiled eggs and cut them into quarters.
In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, dill pickle relish, and paprika. Mix until smooth.
Add the chopped celery and red onion to the dressing and mix well.
Once the cauliflower florets are completely cooled, add them to the bowl with the dressing.
Gently fold in the quartered eggs, keeping them as intact as possible.
Season the salad with salt and black pepper to taste.
Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, sprinkle the top with chopped chives for a fresh, vibrant garnish.
