Perfect Egg Mayonnaise?

Oh, good idea!!

Yes, or damp cotton wool in an old cardboard egg box.

Thanks.

I used to use blotting paper years ago but it's a thing of the past.

Do you use kitchen roll or soil?

A mix of compost and damp kitchen roll.

Cossy there may yet be a riot about all our preferences 😁

I used to live near a Jewish deli that did an egg and onion mixture, all finely chopped with mayo. It was delish and went very well on their warm, fresh beigels. Still wish I lived close enough to do the Sunday morning deli run.

Yes it’s popular but not by me, I can’t stand the taste of onions.

Or cress.

Must plant some cress.

It’s pleasingly simple to grow on the windowsill indoors.😃

When I saw the title I thought you were asking for a mayonnaise recipe, which is of course just egg and oil, with a bit of mustard and lemon juice.

As for an egg salad sandwich....
egg
mayonnaise
salt, pepper
chopped green onion or chives.

I buy Bramwells real mayo from Aldi these days. I think it has less additives than other mayo’s ( but can’t read the ingredients without my magnifying glass which I can’t find).

Just caught up with this thread and have just put eggs on to boil so I can make some for lunch. I like tomatoes on the side, with them. I read recently that we should be eating more eggs in our diet, as they are good for cognitive effects too!

Love an egg salad sandwich but it must have a big pile of cheese and onion crisps on the side.

We often add a bit of grated cheese to the mix

I'm with you Peaseblossom - definitely no tomato!

So leave it out. No problem. 😉

All of your different egg mayo sanies sound delicious and have made me want one right now!

Irish funeral sandwiches sound great!

Thanks all for joining in with your favourites, will definitely be trying some of the additions.

I do that too

I find it better to grate the hard boiled eggs for a smoother texture then add salt & black pepper and mix with Heinz salad cream.

Dill is very good in egg mayonnaise

Definitely would not want it with tomato. I hate egg and tomato together. No curry powder or paprika either. Just eggs, mayo and fresh snipped chives.

A sprinkle of paprika adds a lovely flavour

I use chopped up hard boiled eggs with mayonnaise and snipped up homegrown chives and some salt and pepper. Delicious!

I sometimes like to finely chop a spring onion into mine along with Helmans
