Instructions

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.

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.

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.

Assemble the sandwiches

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

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.

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.

Serving Suggestions

These sandwiches are best served chilled, making them an ideal choice for warm days. Pair them with a light green salad or a cup of soup for a complete meal.
