As the last of the Easter eggs become egg salad, green olives in egg salad, yes or no? If yes, where are you? Trying to figure out where it’s common. My wife and I believe that green olives belong in egg salad, but my coworkers say no.
I’ve had it and I liked it. I prefer little pickles like cornichons though and you can’t have both.
The only place olives belong are crushed for oil or in the trash
BLASPHEMY!
lol, nah, you do you, leaves more for us.
Green olives are excellent in egg salad. To my taste, egg salad needs something to keep it from being bland: Dijon mustard, hot sauce, olives, salami are all options that work well.
I am from the US but have no reason to think any of them are common here. Olives and salami are ideas I got from The Charlie Brown Lunchbag Cookbook that I picked up from the bookmobile as a kid. It had a ton of surprisingly adventurous sandwich recipes.
All you people saying “no way” should try it. Unless you are barbarians with no taste for olives.
I’m particular about the temperature at which I eat eggs. Personally couldn’t do cold egg salad at all.
one of my core childhood memories is eating ice cold egg salads after a day of it being in my fanny pack skiing…that and sparkling apple cider.
