From Sarah:
People get persnickety about how to boil eggs. I am committed to no method, but this process works fine for me:
- Bring pot of water to boil. (Enough water to cover the eggs)
- Add eggs and let boil for 5 minutes, reducing to a gentle boil so that the eggs are not rolling around and cracking their shells.
- Turn off heat and let eggs sit in the hot water for another 5 minutes.
- Remove eggs from water.
Once the eggs are cool, you slice the eggs in half, scoop out the yolk, and mix the yolk with whatever filling you like.
Here, I did a simple combination of light mayonnaise, dijon mustard, and chopped cornichons. No measurements, just to taste.
In the future, I would like to try more daring recipes, like here.
