TARRAGON EGG SALAD



Tarragon Egg Salad image

From the editors of Food & Drink Weekly's Top Picks of 2008 - got me hoping my tender little tarragon plants are surviving winter here OK. The editors suggested using this to make sandwiches or serve on a bed of lettuce garnished with shrimp or lobster. Oh yum - thinking of summer shrimp brightened with tarragon & lemon!! I use Recipe#64854 to hard boil my eggs & chill them quick & then in fridge. No problems peeling. Did not include egg boiling or cooling, peeling in prep/cook time.
