People are typically interested in the recipe, so I am posting that first just to be different. If you want to read the story or the different ways to serve it, look past the recipe. Leave a comment if you think everyone should publish their recipes this way or if you feel the story should be before the recipe, so the reader has to scroll infinitely to the bottom to get the recipe or use a jump to recipe button..
Egg Salad
Ingredients
- 7 Eggs
- 1/4 cup Hellman’s Mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Dry Mustard
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- Paprika to sprinkle on top
Instructions
- Hard boil eggs (7 minutes in boiling water using stovetop method) OR use the Cuisinart electric egg cooker by following hard boil instruction and wait for beeping.
- Fill a large bowl with ice and add cold water to create an ice bath.
- Transfer boiled eggs to egg bath to cool. Use a dish towel to transfer…don’t burn your hands on the steam or the hot eggs! Allow to cool for 3 minutes.
- Peel the eggs and place in a bowl. Add the garlic powder, dry mustard and a pinch of salt & pepper.
- Using a large fork crush the eggs and ingredients. The mixture should have very small chunks of egg.
- Add mayonnaise and mix well.
- Sprinkle with paprika.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
- So many ideas to serve. Here are a few: A sandwich between toast or bread, open face on broiled French Bread or an English muffin with chopped tomatoes and melted shredded cheese, scoop into a bed of lettuce, serve on Ritz crackers
