simple egg salad – perfect with fresh baguette

Then slowly add the oil, stirring constantly, until the desired consistency is reached. Peel the hard-boiled eggs and dice them along with the pickled gherkins. Cut the chives into small rolls. Mix all three ingredients together. Mix the mixture with 2 teaspoons of mustard and some of the mayonnaise (adjust mayonnaise as desired).
