French Style Egg Salad Recipes

FRENCH-STYLE EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Place the eggs, saffron, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until well combined. With the machine running, stream in the oil slowly until an emulsion forms and the mixture thickens. Season with salt, to taste, and pulse once more.
• In a bowl, mix together all of the ingredients until well combined. Serve.

FRENCH STYLE EGG SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• To make hard bubbled eggs, put a couple eggs in a pan, spread with no less than an inch of water, ideal 2 inches.
• Include a half teaspoon of vinegar and some salt to the water (if the shells split while heating up, the vinegar will help keep the egg in the shell).
• Spread the container and heat the water to the point of boiling.
• When the water starts to bubble, expel the container from warmth and let it sit, secured, for 12 minutes.
• Channel the water from the container, add icy water to cool the eggs, let sit two or three minutes longer.
• Concoction the cleaved egg a bit with a fork. Combine the cleaved hard-bubbled egg, mayonnaise, celery and onion.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper and curry powder to taste. Blend with a spoon. Toast your bread cuts.
• Put a layer of lettuce on one cut of toasted bread, spread the egg blend on top of the lettuce, put another cut of toasted bread on top.

'FANCY' EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Put the eggs into a gently boiling pot of water and cook for 30 minutes. Cool with water, peel and chop.
• Toss the eggs in a bowl with the parsley, capers, shallots and bacon. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then add the mayo and mix well. Serve with fresh bread or crackers, on hearts of romaine, or in a salad.

FRENCH-STYLE SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until foamy. Add eggs and cook, whisking, until they begin to set; gently whisk in milk and chives. Remove from heat and serve with toasted bread.

FRENCH POTATO AND GREEN BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, bay leaf and thyme branch. Cook at a brisk simmer until the potatoes are firm but easily pierced with a skewer, about 30 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
• While the potatoes are cooking, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, anchovy, capers, mustard and vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Whisk again before using if the dressing separates.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, remove the skins with a paring knife and carefully cut into pieces 1/4-inch thick, or slightly thicker. Put the slices in a low bowl, season lightly with salt and pepper and add half the vinaigrette. Using your hands, gently coat the potatoes with the vinaigrette, taking care not to break them. Cover and set aside at room temperature.
• Top and tail the beans. Simmer in salted water until firm-tender, about 3 to 4 minutes, then cool under running water and pat dry.
• To cook the eggs, bring a medium pot of water to a rapid boil. Add the eggs and cook for 8 minutes for a somewhat soft-centered yolk or 9 minutes for a firmer yolk. Cool the eggs immediately in ice water, then crack and peel. Cut each egg in half and season lightly with salt and pepper.
• When ready to serve, season the beans with salt and pepper, then dress with the remaining vinaigrette. (Reserve 2 tablespoons vinaigrette for the arugula, if using.)
• Combine the dressed beans and potatoes, using hands to toss, and pile onto a platter. Sprinkle with chives, parsley and basil and arrange the eggs over the top. Garnish with anchovy fillets, if desired. Dress the arugula and send it to the table separately.
