Rebekah Peppler shares her recipe for this classic dish from her book, "À Table: Recipes for Cooking + Eating the French Way," with Bon Appétit. Following her instructions, this crowd favorite should come together in about 15 minutes.

While you boil your eggs for 10 minutes, make the rémoulade by mixing mayonnaise with cornichons, anchovies, lime, mustard, capers, and herbs. After the eggs cool in ice water, slice them in half and place them yolk side up on a plate. Then spoon the rémoulade over top, and finish the dish off with hot sauce. The final product has vibrant colors and an electric flavor.
