New England Onion Sandwich (1972)

• 1 large sweet onion
• 3 hard-cooked eggs
• 2 small pickles
• Mayonnaise
• 1/2 tspn dry mustard
• Salt and pepper

Chop the onion, eggs, and pickle fine, and add enough mayonnaise to have a good spreading consistency. Add mustard, salt, and pepper to taste. 

Spread lavishly. Serve with tomato wedges and ripe olives. 

"This is just such a zestful sandwich, as delighted the Yankee President Calvin Coolidge. It is particularly good made with rye bread."
