How else would you follow up Easter than with National Egg Salad Week? One of my favorite things to eat, I was happy to have Shanisty Ireland on the air with me, and she said NestFresh eggs make a difference for her egg salad. Here's her recipe!
NestFresh’s Egg Salad with Fresh Spring Herbs
Ingredients:
●6 NestFresh eggs
●1 tbsp tarragon leaves, minced
●1 tbsp chives, finely snipped
●1 tbsp parsley, minced
●3 tbsp mayonnaise
●Sea salt, to taste
●Freshly ground pepper, to taste
●1 shallot, finely diced
●Crusty bread to serve
Directions:
1. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 15 minutes.
2. Remove eggs from hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel. Chop eggs and transfer to a salad bowl.
3. Finely chop herbs and shallot and set aside. Mash the eggs with a fork until crumbly. Add the herbs, shallot, mayonnaise, and salt & pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly.
4. Pile the egg salad into a serving bowl and garnish with more fresh herbs. Serve with crusty bread. Enjoy!
