EGG SALAD SANDWICHES
Mrs. Peterson, a lady from church, made the best egg salad sandwiches and she'd never really tell you what she put in them. This was my first attempt to duplicate her recipe. Her family thought she added butter when mixing.

ELI ZABAR'S EGG SALAD SANDWICH
In 1975, Eli Zabar, the owner of E.A.T., Eli's at the Vinegar Factory and numerous restaurants and markets throughout the city, invented what he calls the platonic ideal of an egg salad sandwich. He did it by eliminating half the egg whites. During this period, he was into simplicity, he said, and he wanted to get to the essential "egginess" of egg salad. The recipe remains unchanged more than 40 years later. But what of all the leftover hard-cooked egg whites? E.A.T. sells them as chopped egg white salad in two versions: plain, and dressed with mayonnaise and dill. Waste not, want not.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your egg salad sandwiches will taste. Use eggs that are no more than a week old and fresh, crispy vegetables.
- Hard-boil your eggs perfectly: For the best egg salad, you need to hard-boil your eggs perfectly. Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, depending on how hard you want them to be. Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Mash the eggs gently: When you mash the eggs, be gentle so that you don't overwork them. Overworked eggs will become tough and rubbery. Use a fork or a potato masher to mash the eggs until they are just combined.
- Add your favorite mix-ins: There are many different ingredients that you can add to your egg salad to customize it to your liking. Some popular mix-ins include celery, onion, pickles, mustard, and mayonnaise. You can also add herbs, spices, or cheese.
- Use a good bread: The type of bread you use for your egg salad sandwiches is important. Use a bread that is sturdy enough to hold the egg salad without getting soggy. Some good options include white bread, wheat bread, or rye bread.
- Spread the egg salad evenly: When you spread the egg salad on your bread, be sure to spread it evenly so that each bite has a good amount of egg salad.
- Add toppings: Once you have spread the egg salad on your bread, you can add toppings of your choice. Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, bacon, and avocado.
- Enjoy your egg salad sandwich: Egg salad sandwiches are a delicious and easy lunch or snack. Pack them for lunch, or enjoy them at home.
Conclusion:
Egg salad sandwiches are a classic for a reason. They are delicious, easy to make, and customizable to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the best egg salad sandwiches at home. Experiment with different mix-ins and toppings to find your perfect combination.
