Egg Salad Canapés
This recipe is unique in how the egg is prepared, and, honestly, this is the absolute best way to make egg salad! The key is putting the hard-boiled egg mixture through a potato ricer. The effort yields a fluffy, unbelievably light egg salad that’s great on sandwiches, too. The recipe was inspired by Olga’s egg salad at Squaw Creek Country Club in Vienna, Ohio. Although this recipe was a little different, the light texture echoes the original.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Dill sprigs
Melba toast
PREPARATION
- Take the hard-boiled eggs and put them through a potato ricer. The eggs will then have a fluffy confetti-like consistency.
- Fold sour cream into eggs and combine, then put through the ricer again.
- Spoon the egg salad onto Melba toasts and garnish with a dill sprig.
