Egg Salad Sandwich
The egg salad sandwich is a classic comfort food that combines the rich flavors of hard-boiled eggs, creamy mayonnaise, and a tangy kick of Dijon mustard.
It’s a versatile and satisfying dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, as a snack, or even at a picnic. The combination of the smooth egg salad filling with toasted.
bread makes for a perfect bite, with the option of adding fresh lettuce or butter for extra texture and flavor.
Ingredients
- 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp lemon juice.
- 1 tbsp chopped chives (plus more for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread,
- toasted
- Butter or lettuce leaves (optional)
Instructions
Begin by hard-boiling the eggs. To do so, place the eggs in a pot, cover them with water, and bring the water to a boil.
Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 9–12 minutes. Afterward, transfer.
the eggs to a bowl of cold water to cool. Once cooled, peel the eggs and chop them into small pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice.
Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy, making sure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the chopped chives to the mixture, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until the egg salad is well-seasoned and all the flavors are combined.
Toast the slices of bread until they are golden brown and crisp. This will give the sandwich an extra crunch and help hold the filling in place.
Once the bread is toasted, you can choose to spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice for added richness.
Alternatively, if you prefer a lighter option, you can add a layer of fresh lettuce leaves instead.
Now, take one slice of toasted bread and spread a generous amount of the egg salad mixture onto it. Top with the second slice of bread to complete the sandwich.
For an added touch, sprinkle some extra chopped chives on top for a burst of color and a mild onion flavor. Serve immediately, and enjoy!
