ELI ZABAR'S EGG SALAD SANDWICH



Eli Zabar's Egg Salad Sandwich image

In 1975, Eli Zabar, the owner of E.A.T., Eli's at the Vinegar Factory and numerous restaurants and markets throughout the city, invented what he calls the platonic ideal of an egg salad sandwich. He did it by eliminating half the egg whites. During this period, he was into simplicity, he said, and he wanted to get to the essential "egginess" of egg salad. The recipe remains unchanged more than 40 years later. But what of all the leftover hard-cooked egg whites? E.A.T. sells them as chopped egg white salad in two versions: plain, and dressed with mayonnaise and dill. Waste not, want not.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 large eggs
1/3 cup mayonnaise
Salt
pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
4 slices bread

Steps:

  • Put the eggs in a medium pan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 10 minutes. Place pan in the sink under cold running water until the eggs are cool.
  • Peel the eggs. Remove the yolks from 4 of them (save the whites for another use). Chop the 4 yolks with the 4 remaining whole eggs.
  • In a medium bowl, gently and quickly mix the chopped eggs, mayonnaise, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the dill, mix the egg salad once more, and make into sandwiches.

EGG SALAD SANDWICHES WITH GREEN OLIVE, CELERY AND PARSLEY



Egg Salad Sandwiches With Green Olive, Celery and Parsley image

This zesty egg salad has no mayonnaise (but a dab of homemade mayonnaise would be permissible). Use picholine or other tasty green olives (not the bland canned supermarket type) or substitute Italian-style marinated artichoke hearts. You could add a little chopped anchovy and a few capers, too, if so inclined. Served open-face as appetizers, these sandwiches are very pretty, but there's no reason not to use the filling for a conventional sandwich.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     snack, finger foods, sandwiches, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 12 open-face sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large eggs, boiled 9 minutes, chilled in ice water and peeled

Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1/2 cup roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 to 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 slices challah bread
Unsalted butter, at room temperature
A handful of arugula leaves

Steps:

  • Chop eggs into large rough pieces and put in a medium bowl. Add scallions and celery and season with salt and pepper. Add olives, red pepper, parsley and olive oil. Toss to combine and mash lightly with a fork to amalgamate. (Combine just before serving to keep the mixture fresh looking.)
  • Lay bread slices on a work surface and butter each generously. Spread 2 or 3 tablespoons egg mixture on each. Top each slice with a few arugula leaves.
  • Cut each slice in half diagonally and serve. If desired, cut into bite-size pieces.

SKILLET-BAKED EGGS AND ASPARAGUS



Skillet-Baked Eggs and Asparagus image

Asparagus and eggs have an affinity for each other. The voluptuous yolk softens and smoothes the grassy sharpness of the vegetable, while the asparagus brightens up the dull richness of the egg. The pair's most classic expression is asparagus hollandaise, but that is too fussy and time-consuming a preparation for a regular home-cooked breakfast. This dish combines the flavors in a time- and cook-friendly way.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, easy, weekday, appetizer, main course, side dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil, more for drizzling
3/4 pounds asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 scallions, white and light green parts, thinly sliced
8 large eggs
6 tablespoons roughly chopped soft herbs like basil, cilantro, chives or parsley use at least 2
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Salt
black pepper, to taste
Lemon wedges, for serving
Flaky sea salt for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 300 degrees. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the asparagus and the scallions and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until asparagus is browned and tender.
  • Whisk together the eggs, 4 tablespoons of the herbs, and cream. Whisk in Parmesan, salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over asparagus and place the skillet in the oven.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, until set, but still slightly jiggly in the center. Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before serving. It is best warm, not hot.
  • Squeeze one or two lemon wedges over it, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt and remaining herbs. Cut into wedges.

'FANCY' EGG SALAD

This recipe dresses up basic egg salad with parsley, capers, shallots and bacon. The writer, David Latt, cooks his eggs on a low, gentle boil for 30 minutes and finds they come out perfectly done, with the yolk flaky, but feel free to use whatever method you like, as long as the eggs are hard-boiled. (We give instructions for boiling and steaming in our guide to cooking eggs.) You can also add other spices: mustard, ground mustard seed, cumin or rosemary. The parsley can be replaced with cilantro, and the mayonnaise can be flavored.

  • For the Egg Salad Sandwiches: Use hard-boiled eggs that are freshly cooked and peeled. This will ensure that the egg salad is flavorful and not dry.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins to the egg salad, such as chopped celery, onion, or pickles. You can also add a dollop of mayonnaise or mustard for extra flavor.
  • Serve the tea sandwiches immediately or store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
