Equipment

  • 1 Large Bowl
  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 Chefs Knife

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon Tahini
  • 2 teaspoon Lemon Juice or white wine vinegar
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Dijon Mustard
  • 2 tablespoon Water
  • 1 15 oz Can of Chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 Stalk Celery, finely chopped about ½ cup
  • 2 tablespoon Finely Chopped Onion
  • 4-5 Cornichon, finely chopped about 2 tablespoons
  • Pinch Salt and Black Pepper

Instructions

  • In a large bowl combine the tahini, lemon juice and dijon mustard. Stir well, then add the water and stir again to create the sauce. It will look runny and that's okay.
    2 tablespoon Tahini, 2 teaspoon Lemon Juice, 1 ½ teaspoon Dijon Mustard, 2 tablespoon Water
  • Into the bowl add the chickpeas. Using a fork or potato masher, break the chickpeas apart until they are mostly broken up. See note.

Notes

Mash the chickpeas to your liking! If you like a chunkier salad, don't mash them up much, but if you like a smaller chunk, them mash until it looks good to you.
To store: place the chickpea egg salad into an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
