THE BEST EGG MAYONNAISE
Steps:
- To boil the eggs, place them in a small pot and cover completely with cold water. Bring to the boil, and when the water is bubbling place the lid on the pan and turn off the heat. Leave to steam for 10 minutes.
- Remove the eggs from the pan and place in a bowl of cold water. Leave to cool for at least 5 minutes.
- Peel the eggs and slice in half. Remove the yolks and add them to a small bowl.
- Add the mayonnaise and mustard to the egg yolks. I prefer to start with 5-6 tablespoons of mayo and add more as needed.
- Mash together with a fork to create a thick and creamy sauce. Season with some salt and black pepper to taste.
- Dice up your egg whites - I like mine chunky, but chop them super fine if that's what you prefer!
- Add the egg whites and chives to the yolk and mayo mixture, and stir everything together. Serve immediately or store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- In a glass bowl, whisk together egg yolk and dry ingredients. Combine lemon juice and vinegar in a separate bowl then thoroughly whisk half into the yolk mixture. Start whisking briskly, then start adding the oil a few drops at a time until the liquid seems to thicken and lighten a bit, (which means you've got an emulsion on your hands). Once you reach that point you can relax your arm a little (but just a little) and increase the oil flow to a constant (albeit thin) stream. Once half of the oil is in add the rest of the lemon juice mixture.
- Continue whisking until all of the oil is incorporated. Leave at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours then refrigerate for up to 1 week.

EGG MAYO
Egg mayo - or oeuf mayo, as it's called in France - is simply hard-boiled eggs coated with seasoned mayonnaise, but it's so beloved in France that it has a society to protect it: Association de sauvegarde de l'oeuf mayonnaise. You could season store-bought mayonnaise for this recipe from Priscilla Martel, but at least just once, you should make your own. It'll be delicious, and you'll feel like a magician. The dish is beautiful served plain, and tasty dressed with anchovies, capers, snipped chives or other herbs (choose one or more). It's good as a starter, with a pouf of dressed greens, or as part of a platter of small salads (hors d'oeuvres variées), a picnic on a tray.

Steps:
- Prepare the hard-boiled eggs: Put the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat so that the water is at a strong simmer and cook, uncovered, for 7 minutes. Drain the eggs into a colander, and run them under cold water.
- Return the eggs to the empty pan, shake the pan vigorously to crack the shells, then peel the eggs under cold running water. Rinse them and keep them covered in the refrigerator until needed. (They should be used the same day.)
- Prepare the mayonnaise: Put the egg, lemon juice, mustard, vinegar and salt in the container of a blender; pulse to mix. With the machine running on high speed if your blender has two or three speeds, or on medium to medium-high if your blender has more speeds, slowly and steadily pour in the oil, stopping halfway through to scrape down the sides of the container. Every blender is different, so it's hard to say how long it will take for the oil to be incorporated and the mayo to set. Taste and see if you want to add more lemon juice, mustard, vinegar or salt. Scrape into a clean container, cover and refrigerate until needed. (The mayo will keep for up to 4 days.)
- To assemble the dish, you'll need about half the mayonnaise to cover the 4 hard-boiled eggs. You want the mayo to be thin enough to just coat the eggs - it should come off the spoon in quickly dissolving ribbons - so, if needed, thin it with a little hot water. (You might need 3 to 4 teaspoons; check as you go.) Taste, and see if you want more salt and some pepper.
- Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and place them on a platter, yolk side down or up. Spoon the mayonnaise on top, coating the egg and allowing some to slip over the sides. Garnish the eggs as you like. Serve with bread, of course.
Tips:
- Select the freshest eggs possible. Fresh eggs will produce a mayonnaise with a richer flavor and creamier texture.
- Use a food processor or blender to make the mayonnaise. This will help to create a smooth and emulsified sauce.
- Gradually add the oil to the egg whites while the food processor or blender is running. This will help to prevent the mayonnaise from curdling.
- Add seasonings to taste. Common seasonings for mayonnaise include salt, pepper, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard.
- Store the mayonnaise in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
