  • Put the eggs and potatoes to boil in one bowl and start making the sauce in another.
  • Prepare the dressing by placing all the ingredients in a mixing bowl (salt, black pepper, mustard, olive oil, honey, vinegar, thyme). Whisk quickly with a medium-sized spoon or mixer. As soon as the mixture becomes homogeneous, your dressing is ready.
