Ingredients
- 4 medium eggs
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper optional
- 2 tablespoons chives chopped
- 2 tablespoons dill chopped
- 3-4 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
SANDWICH
- 4 slices bread
- lettuce
- tomato sliced
Instructions
- Pour cold water into a pot and gently place the eggs inside. It is important that the eggs are covered in water. On medium heat, cover the pot and bring the water to a boil. After 10 minutes, turn off the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water.
- Pour cold water and ice cubes into a bowl. Put the eggs inside the bowl immediately with the help of tongs to stop their cooking process. After 2-3 minutes, let them cool slightly. Remove the shells by tapping each on the countertop.
- Chop the egg into bite-sized pieces after slicing it in the middle. It is not necessary to dice very finely. In a medium bowl, add the chopped eggs.
- In another bowl, combine the chives, dill, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, crushed red pepper, mayonnaise, and crushed red pepper. Gently fold the eggs with a spatula to avoid mashing them.
- Spread butter on the toasted bread. Put sliced tomato, lettuce, and egg salad mixture on top. Place another toasted piece of bread on top and enjoy!
