Buvette's Boiled Eggs with Seasoned Salt

All week long Jody Williams, the chef at New York's beloved Buvette restaurant, will be sharing recipes from her new book, Buvette: The Pleasure of Good Food. Follow along to win one of five copies we're giving away -- and to add a little more Paris into your life.

Today: An elegant -- and cleverly salted -- way to pack up your eggs.

This idea was inspired by the Italian Easter tradition of wrapping chocolate eggs in colorful paper with a surprise inside. At Buvette, I use a vintage wire egg basket to hold hard-boiled eggs that are wrapped in brown paper.

To make hard-boiled eggs less ordinary, a pinch of seasoned salt goes into the center of a square of parchment paper, and the egg is placed on the parchment with the seasoned salt. When it’s all wrapped up, the egg and seasoned salt become a portable snack that can be put in your pocket and enjoyed anytime hunger strikes.
