Tips

  • For a nice cross-section later, you can soft boil a few pieces of eggs.
  • The mayonnaise is described as rich and creamy, which is key to the dressing.
  • Marinating the eggs overnight is the twist that adds a lot of flavor.
  • Wrap the sandwich tightly in plastic wrap before cutting to hold it together.
