Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by placing about four large eggs in a pot and covering them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat, then remove the pot from heat and cover it. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for 12 minutes.
- Afterward, transfer the eggs to an ice bath for about 5 minutes to cool.
- While the eggs cool, take 1-2 fresh English cucumbers and wash them thoroughly. Cut off the ends, then slice them in half lengthwise before dicing into bite-sized pieces.
- Once cooled, gently crack the eggs and peel them under running water. Dice the eggs into small pieces, keeping some larger chunks for texture.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs and diced cucumbers.
- Add a generous scoop of mayonnaise and 1-2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard to the bowl with the eggs and cucumbers. Fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated.
- Sprinkle in salt, freshly cracked black pepper to taste, and a handful of freshly chopped dill.
- Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- When ready to serve, spoon the chilled salad onto plates or into lettuce wraps. Garnish with extra dill or a dollop of mayonnaise if desired.
