ingredients
6 large eggs
6 oz. cold-smoked salmon, cut into small dice (1 scant cup)
6 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 small red onion, cut into small dice (about 2/3 cup)
1/3 cup capers, drained
2 Tbs. minced fresh dill
1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
how to make
Put the eggs in a medium saucepan with enough water to cover. Cover the pan and bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. As soon as the water boils, remove the pan from the heat and let stand, covered, until the eggs are hard-cooked, 10 minutes. Put the eggs in ice water to cool.
Peel the eggs, chop finely, and put them in a medium bowl. Add the salmon, oil, onion, capers, dill, and lemon juice and zest. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently but well and serve.
