Egg Salad With Fresh Herbs Recipes

EGG SALAD WITH FRESH HERBS

Steps:

• Bring enough water to a boil in a saucepan so that it will cover the eggs by one inch.
• Using a slotted spoon, gently lower the eggs into the boiling water, and immediately reduce the heat to a low simmer.
• Let the eggs simmer for exactly 12 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath and let cool for about 10 minutes. PRO TIP: Avoid using (and thus washing) an extra bowl by making the saucepan the ice bath. Gently drain the water from the saucepan with the eggs still in it (careful! you may want to brace the eggs with a spoon; don't worry if some of the water stays in), then refill the pot with a few rounds of cold water and add some ice cubes.
• While the eggs are cooling, mince the herbs and shallot and measure into a bowl with the mayonnaise, salt, and vinegar. Peel the eggs and add them to the bowl. PRO TIP: Stop peeling the eggs with your fingers! The fastest, best way to peel hard-boiled eggs is to slice them in half with a large knife. Then, using a spoon, scoop the egg directly from the shell, as you would avocado.
• Using a fork, mash the eggs and mix everything together to your desired level of mashed-up-ness. Taste for seasoning. Garnish with fresh chives.Serve on toast, as a sandwich (use soft bread), or over tender greens such as baby arugula or cress.

EGG SALAD WITH SPRING HERBS

Steps:

• Cover the eggs with cold water in a saucepan, bring them to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let stand for 5 or 6 minutes, 7 minutes if at high altitude.
• Pour off the hot water, rinse the eggs with cool water, then peel and chop the eggs. If you want the zesty hit of the shallot, toss it, once diced, with just a few drops vinegar and let stand for a few minutes. The color will change right away to a soft pink. (If there is excess vinegar, drain it off when you add the shallots to the egg mixture).
• Finely chop the herbs and set aside.
• Mash the eggs with a fork until crumbly. Add the herbs into the a bowl with the eggs, and add mayonnaise. If you used commercial mayonnaise you might not need much salt. Add the pickled shallot and mix. Taste, add 1/4 teaspoon, then taste again. Season with pepper.
• Pile the egg salad into a serving bowl and garnish with chive blossoms, if available, or serve atop thick slices of rustic toast.
