Serves 1
*To hard-cook the egg, place the egg in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat. When the water is just starting to boil, turn down the heat until small bubbles form and boil gently for 9 minutes. Immediately place the egg in ice water or very cold water and let sit until cold.
These were delicious! My favorite classic picnic food.
