  • 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.

  • 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
