cucumbers and egg salad
Jul. 15th, 2009 10:33 amso, lately I really like cucumbers. It's great for hot weather like this. It was 103 degrees F this week! Also, I always think of kappa when I eat them. (They are one of my favorite weird mythical creatures... "Kappa may even befriend human beings in exchange for gifts and offerings, especially cucumbers." Well of course, cause cucumbers are awesome!
I started small with cucumber sandwiches thanks to Judy. It's pretty hard to screw those up. :D (You just soak the cucumber slices in white vinegar and sugar for a bit, and then put them with mayo on white bread.)
But Senka Cafe in Little Tokyo puts cucumber slices on their egg salad sandwiches. (SO GOOD!) So I thought I'd try. My sandwich looks pretty good... but it's missing some flavor. I'm not sure what I should try to add next time? (suggestions welcome!)
Mine is basically 4 boiled eggs + 2 tablespoons mayo + 2 tsp sweet relish + some salt and pepper. Then I put that on some lettuce and cucumber slices on bread. I don't like celery or onions really (I know, weird.)
