Is it just an excuse to eat spoonfuls of Mayonnaise ?

Eggs should not have leaves sticking out of them


I had never made egg salad until I was well into middle age, but eventually I had an herb garden and kept looking for things to do with them.

Egg salad with lots of fresh herbs can be quite wonderful. Looks like you are using thyme. Thyme, parsley, basil, oregano, and chives all play well together. Rosemary is excellent too, but needs to be used in moderation and without a lot of distractions.

Minimal mustard, but fresh ground pepper is essential. Try chopped green olives.

From the US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8 :

The   Congress   shall have Power
To declare War,  grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;
To provide for calling forth the Militia  to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

Yep, but I rarely make it because cracking a few eggs on a pan is so much easier :p

I agree with fohat on this one.  I use a lot of different seasonings in about everything.  Also,  for pretty much any sandwich spread type salad,  if you measure anything,  you are doing it wrong.   The best part about just reaching into the fridge, cupboard, pantry and dumping in,  it comes out a little different each time.

Can also try experimenting with other liquids for a splash of different,  such as A-1, worchesterchire (I know that is spelled wrong), vanilla extract,  tobacco sauce, etc.

The major problem with egg salad..

Is you could really only eat so much of it each day..  (saturated fat limit)

Like pickles..  you can't realistically eat more than 1 pickle a day..  (salt limit)

As far as tp4 threads go I'd give this one a 3/10.

We both know you can do better than this, and as a Friday post? For shame.

Up your Off-topic game brother!

I feel like it works best as a DIP.

Because if you got it in the bread, then you taste the bread first, 

And the bread kinda dulls the impact of the egg-salad..


Whereas if you have the egg-salad as a dip for say strips of Toast..

Then the egg hits your tongue first..



Kinda like how You'd eat the butter side down on a slice of buttered bread.
