Essential Ingredients- 5 hard-boiled eggs (cooked until fully set)
- 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp finely minced onion (ensure it’s well-drained)
- 1 finely chopped spicy pickle (adjust to your preference)
- A pinch of black pepper
- 2 pinches of salt
- A touch of whole grain mustard (or Dijon mustard)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Once the eggs are hard-boiled and peeled, separate the yolks from the whites. Finely dice the egg whites into small cubes. For the yolks, mash them with a fork or your fingers until slightly crumbly, leaving some texture rather than making them completely smooth.
Step 2
Finely mince the onion and the spicy pickle. To mellow the sharpness of the onion, you can soak the minced onion in cold water for a few minutes, then squeeze out all excess moisture before using. This makes it extra crisp and palatable.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, combine the mashed egg yolks, diced egg whites, minced onion, and chopped pickle. Add the mayonnaise, a pinch of pepper, and two pinches of salt. Gently mix everything together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 4
Lightly toast your chosen bread slices. You can do this in a pan with a little butter or in a toaster. Toasting enhances the bread’s flavor and adds a pleasant crispiness.
Step 5
On the inside of one toasted bread slice, spread a thin layer of whole grain or Dijon mustard. The mustard’s slight tanginess cuts through the richness of the egg mixture and adds an extra layer of flavor.
Step 6
Generously pile the prepared egg salad mixture onto the mustard-spread bread slice. Don’t be shy – a generous amount makes for a truly satisfying sandwich! Place the other bread slice on top to complete your delicious egg sandwich.
