GOLDENROD EGGS
This is a dish my wife had to learn to make in her high school home economics class. I've adapted and renamed it. To me, it has no equal and brings to mind those special days of the '40's. -Richard, Ramsey Eugene, Oregon

Steps:
- 1. Place your eggs in a small saucepan with enough water to cover and slowly bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes, then cover and let sit for 12 to 15 minutes. Rinse with cold water, when cooled, peel and chop.
- 2. While cooking the eggs, in a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat, add the flour and cook for one or two minutes to cook out the raw flour taste. Whisk in the milk and cook until thickened. Cover and set aside until the eggs are chopped.
- 3. Place the chopped eggs into the hot cream sauce, add the curry powder and salt and pepper to taste. Stir until blended, and serve hot over buttered toast or biscuits. You can save back a little of the egg to garnish the dish or sprinkle with a little paprika or more curry powder. This is great served with crisp bacon or ham, and a nice fresh fruit salad.

Tips:
- Use Fresh Beets: Fresh beets are best for this recipe as they have a sweeter and more vibrant flavor. If using canned beets, rinse them well and drain before using.
- Cook the Beets Properly: Overcooked beets will become mushy, so cook them just until tender. You can check the doneness by piercing them with a fork; they should be tender but still slightly firm.
- Grate the Beets: Grating the beets will help them release their color and flavor more easily. You can use a box grater or a food processor fitted with the grating disc.
- Use Good Quality Mayonnaise: The mayonnaise is a key ingredient in this salad, so use a good-quality brand that you enjoy the taste of.
- Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the salad and adjust the seasonings, such as salt, pepper, and vinegar, to your liking.
Conclusion:
Goldenrod eggs are a delicious and colorful salad that is perfect for potlucks, picnics, or any other gathering. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your liking by adjusting the seasonings or adding other ingredients, such as chopped nuts or crumbled bacon. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting salad to try, give goldenrod eggs a try!
