Egg Salad Sandwich: A little history
The egg salad sandwich has a history that dates back to the late 19th century when sandwiches were gaining popularity. Originally a blend of hard-boiled eggs and simple ingredients, it evolved with the availability of mayonnaise in the 20th century. This classic quickly became a go-to option in cafes and kitchens. Over time, regional variations emerged, adding herbs, spices, and veggies. In recent years, the rise of vegan diets has led to plant-based versions using tofu or chickpeas. Through its transformations, the egg salad sandwich remains a comfort food cherished for its versatility and ability to adapt to changing tastes and times.
