evorotorua - I believe this style of gadget were manufactured by several different outfits, mouli, was one of them.They all work on the same principle, some were metal, some plastic.All do the same job, but were mostly used or designed for grating cheese.

Oh I see Kuaka, I always think of a mouli as that big thing with the ball knob that turns the scooper over the holed disk for baby food. Now I see it is actually a brand name!! You learn something new everyday. Thanks.

Thick white sauce is the one. season well. We used it to make cheese and onion filling as well. Made it stick onto the bread, the cheese and onion would remain soft to spread well.

mash the eggs whilst they are hot, add salt and pepper and a tiny bit of milk - maybe 1 teaspoon or less, then finely slice spring onions and add, yummmoooooooo

Hi, is the gadget you are thinking of a Zyliss machine. I still have one and is very handy although it does not "stick by suction" any longer to the bench. Anyone know how I can fix that ????? I have had mine about 30-35 years !!!!! Cheers

I just love those "old fashioned" egg sandwiches that you get in little coffee shops! How do they do that! What do you use to bind it together! It's not sweet like mayo, or sour like sour cream!! What the heck is the trick - so I can make them at home to put in the lunchbox!! Thanks for your help!

When I worked in a 'tearooms' we boiled the eggs until they were hard boiled, and then 'riced' them, added salt, pepper and cream. Stir until all combined. Chill. It wasn't really a ricer that we used but one of the bench top type graters that suctioned onto the bench and then there was a barrell grater and you pushed the egg through and turned the handle. No idea what it is called but basically it grated the egg. The sandwiches were beautiful.

I mash them while hot too. they're softer and easier to do I find. I add a little curry powder to the mix too. just a touch. enhances the other flavours - you could use a little mustard powder too.

Hard boil your eggs.but take one egg out before its completely hard boiled.shell eggs and mash the yolks with a little milk and pepper and salt.grate the whites then add the egg that isnt fully hard boiled . still nice and runny. and mashed till well mixed.add some snipped chives and chopped parsley
