I've tried many variations of egg salad sandwiches over the years but I always return to my basic recipe as follows. Important to use the best ingredients. Egg salad sandwich made with store bought mayonnaise is really good but egg salad sandwich made with homemade mayonnaise is worthy of exaltation. I only add dill occasionally and *only* if it's fresh from our herb garden. *Warning*: contains raw egg. -Tasty- does like a few black olives (chopped) stirred into her egg salad sandwich. I begrudgingly comply. ;) Nothin' like indulging the little darlin'.
Ingredients:
2 -3 hard-boiled eggs (depends on the size of the eggs)
4 slices homemade bread (whole wheat, multi-grain, etc.)
1/3 cup homemade mayonnaise, approximately
1/2 cup arugula, approximately (rocket)
cracked black pepper, to taste
salt, to taste
fresh dill (optional)
3 black olives, minced (optional for the oft-requested 'tasty dish' egg salad sandwich special)
Directions:
1. In a small bowl mash the hard boiled eggs with the mayonnaise.
2. Add black pepper and salt to taste. Stir in the dill if you wish (and the minced olives, too).
3. Divide and spread the mixture on two slices of bread. Arrange the spinach leaves on top. Place the other slice of bread on top.
4. Cut sandwich in half and enjoy!
