I was given 2 dozen fresh eggs this week and immediately starting making dishes with eggs. If you have never had a fresh egg, you need to find a farm (or a friend) that has them. You will be amazed at the difference from those in your local grocery store.
I was making egg salad for lunch and realized I didn't have any mayo . So, I came up with my own recipe with no mayo! Another original recipe.
Egg Salad w/ No Mayo
1 T shallot, chopped
1 T pickles, chopped
1-2 T Creole mustard (grain mustard will work too)
Sprinkle Old Bay
2 Eggs, hard cooked to your liking (see note below)
1. Mix everything except the eggs in a small bowl.
2. Peel and slick open the eggs to remove the yolk and add to the bowl with the other ingredients.
3. Mash yolks into the other ingredients.
4. Chop egg whites and add to the bowl.
5. Mix gently.
Note about hard cooked eggs: For the brightest, yellow yolk, put the eggs in water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let sit for 19 minutes. Rinse immediately with ice cold water to stop the cooking process.
Enjoy!
