Equipment

  • whisk

Ingredients

  • 6 cornichons chopped
  • cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped drained capers
  • 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
  • Kosher or sea salt and a lot of freshly ground pepper
  • eggs
  • 2 tablespoons chopped herbs I use parsley and tarragon

Instructions

For the six minute boiled egg

  • Bring a saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Add your egga and boil on high for exactly six minutes. While the eggs are boiling grab a bowl and fill with ice an dcold water. When the six minutes are up, take the eggs out of the boiling water and place them in the bowl of ice water. This stops them from cooking further. After a few minutes remove from ice water and peel and coarsely chop.
