Egg Salad with Dill

Given that I've been craving cold summer salads and the dill has been bolting, egg salad seemed a natural. At first, the proportions in this recipe, which I halved, seemed much too saucy. So, I asked John to bring home two more hard-boiled eggs, mixed those into the dish, and all was good. My version, with tweaks, below:

• 6 hard-boiled eggs, coarsely chopped
• heaping 1/4 cup red onion, chopped, plus more for garnish if desired
• heaping 1/6 cup dill (though some found the original proportions too much, I love this herb and actually increased the amount)
• 1/4 cup mayo
• 1/8 cup sour cream (seriously, don't skip this - adds a wonderful rich tang)
• 1/8 cup Dijon mustard (Grey Poupon country-style worked very well, as the seeds added texture)
• salt and pepper to taste

Put the eggs, red onion and dill in a bowl.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream and mustard. Add to the egg mix, toss, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Refrigerate for a few hours or serve warm with bread or crackers.
