Instructions

1

Prepare the eggs

Peel the hard-boiled eggs and place them in a bowl. Use a fork to mash them until they reach a chunky consistency.

Pro tip: Ensure eggs are completely cooled before peeling to make the process easier.

2

Mix the egg salad

Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper to the mashed eggs. Mix until well combined.

Pro tip: Adjust the amount of mayonnaise to achieve your desired creaminess.

3

Prepare the radishes and pickles

Thinly slice the radishes and chop the pickles into small pieces. Set aside.

Pro tip: Use a mandoline slicer for evenly thin radish slices.

4

Assemble the sandwiches

Lay out the bread slices. Spread the egg mixture evenly over four slices of bread.

5

Add radishes and pickles

Distribute the sliced radishes and chopped pickles over the egg mixture. Sprinkle with fresh dill.

Pro tip: Ensure an even layer of radishes for consistent crunch.

6

Complete the sandwiches

Top with the remaining slices of bread. Cut sandwiches in half and serve immediately.

Pro tip: For a cleaner cut, use a serrated knife.
