  • 4 large eggs, boiled for 8 minutes (10 for fully cooked/hard)
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 large slices country-style bread, toasted
  • 3 teaspoons ½-inch pieces chives
  • handful of baby basil leaves, or larger leaves torn into small pieces
  • a few sprigs of Italian parsley, torn into pieces

  • ½ teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • extra virgin olive oil (for drizzling)
Preparation
  1. Combine mayonnaise with vinegar and hot sauce. Set aside.
  2. Tear eggs into large pieces; add mayonnaise (you may not need all of it). Gently fold to coat, and season with salt and pepper. Spoon egg salad over toasted bread.
  3. Toss chives, basil, parsley, dill, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Add lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, and season with salt. Toss to coat and pile on top of egg salad. Season with extra salt and pepper to taste.
