Making Egg Salad For A Tea Party

Video Transcript

"Okay so that's our six eggs. Hard boiled, peeled and into the bowl. And then I'm just taking, there's no special equipment needed here, just the back of a fork. Until you get it to this nice fine texture. Okay so those are sufficiently, see that, nicely mashed up. I'm going to put that all into a bowl, a larger bowl. Because of course we've got to add to our egg sandwiches. I'm going to take just under half a cup of mayonnaise for this. If you put a full half-cup it's a little too mayonnaise but it's more than a 3rd of a cup. One of those things. Of course if you happen to like yours very mayonnaise, that's totally not a word. You can go ahead and put the full half cup. To that I'm going to add just a teaspoon of Dijon mustard. A little bit of salt but not a lot because of course mayonnaise is salty in itself. It's one of the things you have to taste it to know. A little pepper. Not a lot. And today you can add pretty much anything that you like. I'm just going to add a hint of dill. And mash that all together. You could add some tarragon. You could do curried egg sandwiches. If you wanted to add a little bit of crunch which I often want to do I will put in a little bit of celery or perhaps a little bit of Vidalia onion. So that is all set to spread on our bread.
