Yummy Egg Salad Sandwich

Yummy Egg Salad Sandwich

Are you looking for a recipe for a yummy egg salad sandwich? Eggs are considered by many as the universal food that connects all nations, cultures, and people. In fact, eggs in the human diet are so prevalent, you’d be hard-pressed (not hardboiled) to find a corner of the world where eggs aren’t consumed by the locals. This, of course, doesn’t mean that the eggs are necessarily chicken eggs. Birds and reptiles are the sources of a myriad of eggs that humans have added to their diet for millennia. With this said, though, the recipe here is of the “chicken egg” variety. However, I’d be interested to learn if the recipe works well with other kinds of eggs. Good luck, though, finding duck eggs at your neighborhood grocer. Egg salad is one of my favorite ways of serving hard-boiled eggs. For the record, my second favorite way of serving hard-boiled eggs is as deviled-eggs. And that’s a recipe for a future day. One of the beautiful things about egg salad sandwiches is they work great as either a traditional sandwich eaten with the hands or as an open-faced sandwich eaten with a fork. Either way, you’ll love how this yummy egg salad sandwich tastes.
