Egg sandwich

To make the egg sandwich, first, place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil 1. After 6 and a half minutes from boiling, drain 4 eggs and transfer them to a bowl with ice water 2: they will have the consistency of soft-boiled eggs and will be placed 1 in each sandwich. Drain the remaining eggs after 8 and a half minutes from boiling and immerse them in another bowl with ice water 3: they will have the consistency of hard-boiled eggs.

Clean and finely chop the shallot 4. In a bowl, pour some water with a few drops of white wine vinegar 5 and soak the chopped shallot for a while 6. This will help to reduce the strong taste.

Finely chop the pickles 7, the chives 8, and the parsley. Mix the aromatic herbs in a small bowl and also add the dill by hand-picking the leaves 9.

Peel the hard-boiled eggs and separate the whites from the yolks 10. Transfer the yolks to a sieve and press with the back of a spoon 11 to crumble them 12.

Add the mayonnaise 13, the whole grain mustard 14, and the chopped aromatic herbs 15.

Also add the chopped pickles 16 and the hot sauce 17. Mix everything with a whisk and season with a few drops of vinegar 18.

At this point, chop the hard-boiled egg whites with a knife 19 and add them to the mixture 20. Mix well to incorporate them, then season with salt 21 and pepper 22.

Finally, add the drained chopped shallot 22 and mix again to combine 23. You are ready to assemble your sandwich: cut 8 slices of sandwich bread 34 and remove the crust.

Spread a tablespoon of the egg salad on the first slice 25, then place the soft-boiled egg in the center 26 and cover with another tablespoon of egg salad 27.

Close with the second slice of bread 28. Now you need to wrap the egg sandwich in parchment paper so you can enjoy it more comfortably: you can now cut it in half with the help of a serrated knife 29. Repeat the procedure to make the other 3 sandwiches. Your egg sandwich is ready to be enjoyed 30!
