Author Notes

Growing up, Sunday mornings were all about egg sandwiches with my dad. He had “his” frying technique (turns out Amanda‘s dad also fried his eggs this way), and when I wasn't quite old enough for the stove, I would perch myself on the counter and toast the English muffins. Now I make fried egg sammies on Sundays with my kids. And our new line of aioli is the perfect creamy, punchy condiment to bring it all together. —Alison Cayne
