Egg Salad with Truffle Oil: Make Eggs Magical

A moustache spells the difference between a Robert Pattinson and a Chuck Norris. A moustache instantly transforms a boy into a man.

In the local culinary scene, the equivalent of this magnificent piece of hair is truffle oil.

For some strange reason, local Italian and French restaurants have been recently slathering all their less than exciting dishes with truffle oil (a lot of them mostly for marketing purposes) and charging customers double the price of the dish with some fancy name.

Sprinkle some truffle oil into a standard white pasta, and voila—you get “Gordon’s Truffle Oil Cream.”

And while truffle oil isn’t all that special, it does add a certain dimension to food.

In our little dish, adding some truffle oil to some good ol’ egg salad might give it a powerful, moustache-like punch you need.

    I love egg salad!!  Although, truth be told, I am not at all a fan of pickle relish.  Truffle oil, now, that is something I will get behind…despite it being almost painfully trendy.  I am going to try this soon! :)  My fave egg salad add-in is bits of bacon :)
