BACON AND EGG SALAD



Bacon and Egg Salad image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 slices bacon
6 hard-boiled large eggs, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
1 lemon, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 ripe avocado, sliced, optional
1 Roma tomato, sliced, optional
4 croissants, lightly toasted, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • To cook the bacon using the "Mauro Method," line a baking sheet with parchment, overlapping each side 1 to 2 inches. Put the bacon on the parchment and bake until crisp and brown, about 20 minutes. This way, the fat will fry the bacon to a perfect crisp but not come in contact with the metal pan, creating a mess. Drain the bacon on paper towels and let cool. (Once the fat is cooled, use or just toss it. No mess!)
  • Crumble the bacon into a bowl. Gently mix in the eggs, mayonnaise, chives, mustard and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Eat alone, or build sandwiches with avocados and tomatoes on toasted croissants.

EGG AND BACON SALAD



Egg and Bacon Salad image

Provided by Nigella Lawson : Food Network

Time 32m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 eggs
1 head escarole or frisee or other bitter leaves of choice
1 teaspoon garlic oil
7 ounces (3/4 cup) smoked lardoons, or about 14 slices smoked bacon, cut into chunks
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 teaspoons cider vinegar
Dash Worcestershire sauce
Small bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves chopped

Steps:

  • Put the eggs into a saucepan of water, over medium heat. Bring to boil, and cook for 1 minute, then turn off the heat and let the eggs sit in the pan for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water and let cool. Peel the eggs once they feel cool to the touch.
  • Cook's Note: I cook my eggs this way, as I love the yolks to be only just or rather almost hard-boiled, with the memory of oozy goldenness still evident at the centre; it also keeps the white amazingly silky. If, however you prefer a proper, good and bouncy reassuringly hard-boiled egg, cooked until the yolks are powdery and compact, keep the heat on under the pan for 10 minutes. The same applies, if you're making this for anyone with a compromised immune system, such as the old and frail, very young or pregnant women.
  • Meanwhile, tear the salad leaves into bite-sized pieces and drop them into a serving bowl.
  • Heat the garlic oil in a small frying pan, over medium heat and fry the lardons or bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes or so. Transfer the lardons or bacon with a slotted spatula to some paper towels to drain, while you make the dressing.
  • Add the Dijon mustard to the bacon juices in the pan and whisk to combine, then add the vinegar and a dash of Worcestershire sauce. Whisk again, then pour it over the salad leaves, tossing to mix.
  • Add the lardons and toss again, then quarter the eggs and add them along with the chopped parsley. Gently mix to combine, trying not to break up the eggs.
  • Make Ahead Note:
  • The hard-boiled eggs can be made up 4 days ahead. Cool, leave the shells and store in an air tight container in the refrigerator. Remove the shells just before serving.

BACON AND EGG SALAD



Bacon and Egg Salad image

Frisee salad with bacon and poached eggs.

Provided by Laura Calder

Categories     dairy-free,dinner,eggs and dairy,French,lunch,pork,salad,side

Time 13m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 eggs
A splash of white wine vinegar
About ¼ pound/250 g trimmed frisée
4 slices bacon, cut into small pieces (about 4 ounces/110 g total)
3 Tbsp red wine or balsamic vinegar
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Poach the eggs: bring a shallow pan of water to the boil. Add a splash of white wine vinegar. Reduce the heat to a simmer and stir to get the liquid moving in one direction, like a whirlpool. Break in the eggs, one at a time. Poach until the white is set, but the yolk still runny inside, 2 to 3 minutes. Lift them out with a slotted spoon, and set them on paper towel to drain. (You can trim the edges a little if you want to). Turn off the water, and cover to keep warm for reheating the eggs.
  • Wash the greens and spin them dry. Fry the bacon in a sauté pan or wok until crisp, about 5 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the vinegar and boil to reduce to about 2 teaspoons. Add enough oil to make a dressing. Toss the greens in the pan for a few seconds just to coat- don't let them wilt.
  • Divide among two plates and season with fleur de sel and freshly ground pepper. Reheat the eggs in the water for a second or two, lift out, drain, and set alongside each salad. Season, and serve.

Tips:

  • For a richer egg salad, use mayonnaise made with olive oil or avocado oil. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
  • To make the egg salad more flavorful, add a variety of seasonings, such as Dijon mustard, celery salt, paprika, or cayenne pepper. You can also add chopped fresh herbs, such as chives, parsley, or dill.
  • If you want a chunky egg salad, chop the eggs and other ingredients rather than mashing them. This will give the salad more texture.
  • To make the egg salad ahead of time, prepare it up to 3 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When you're ready to serve, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the egg salad on a bed of lettuce or arugula, or in a sandwich or wrap. You can also use it as a dip for vegetables or crackers.

Conclusion:

Egg salad with bacon is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and satisfying meal, give egg salad with bacon a try. You won't be disappointed!
