Cooking Notes

Mix a small amount of Dijon mustard with the mayonnaise. Finely sliced chives or tarragon mixed with the mustard and mayonnaise is delicious and I either use a half of a Quail's eggs or a slice of hen's egg, not a quarter which may be awkward to eat gracefully.

Big hit at our New Year's party. Garlic aioli was a must. Used scallions instead of chives because what I had on hand. Split eggs into sixths and was able to lie two pieces on toast nicely without too much wiggling during transport.

Works great with deviled eggs, as well!
