Chef Gordon Ramsay’s Ultimate Eggshell Egg Salad Sandwich
(Feel-good, high-nutrient comfort food made with real eggs and sprouted grain bread)

🥚 Ingredients

For the eggs & eggshell powder:

  • 6 free-range, pasture-raised eggs
  • Pinch of sea salt for boiling water

For the egg salad:

  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil mayonnaise (or homemade)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped celery (optional, for crunch)
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • ½ teaspoon eggshell powder (optional, for added calcium and minerals)

For the sandwich:

  • 4 slices Silver Hills sprouted whole grain bread or Ezekiel bread
  • Organic butter or avocado oil for toasting
  • Lettuce leaves or baby spinach, for serving

🔥 Directions

1. Boil the eggs perfectly.
Bring a pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Add the eggs carefully.
Cook for 9–10 minutes for firm but creamy yolks.
Transfer to ice water immediately to stop cooking.

2. Make the eggshell powder (Ramsay’s secret touch).

  • Save the clean shells.
  • Boil them again for 5 minutes to sterilize.
  • Dry completely on a baking sheet.
  • Bake at 200°F (95°C) for 10 minutes until brittle.
  • Grind into a fine powder using a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle.

Ramsay says: “A pinch of eggshell powder adds trace minerals and calcium — nature’s own supplement. Waste nothing!”

3. Peel and chop the eggs.
Roughly chop — Ramsay prefers a mix of textures, not a paste.

4. Mix the salad.
In a bowl, whisk mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and a small pinch of eggshell powder.
Fold in the eggs, chives, and celery until just combined. Don’t overmix.

5. Toast the bread.
Lightly butter or brush each slice with avocado oil.
Toast until golden on both sides. Ramsay says: “That crunch makes the sandwich sing.”

6. Assemble.
Lay down lettuce or spinach, scoop generous portions of egg salad, and close with the top slice.
Cut diagonally — because presentation matters, even at breakfast.

🍽️ Chef Ramsay’s Notes

“Good food should make you feel alive. The sprouted grains from Silver Hills or Ezekiel bread help your body digest better, the eggs give protein, and the shell brings the minerals full circle. That’s nature’s perfection — simple, rustic, and bloody delicious.”

Avoiding Microplastics

Dr. Luka Kovač, the brilliant yet brooding emergency room physician, takes a deep breath before addressing the camera, his Croatian accent lending a weight of authority to his words.

“Microplastics are everywhere—our water, our food, even in the air we breathe. If you want to minimize your exposure, you must be disciplined. Here’s what I do:”

  1. Drink filtered water – “I don’t trust bottled water. It’s ironic, but many plastic bottles release microplastics into the very water they contain. I use a high-quality water filter at home and carry a stainless-steel bottle.”
  2. Avoid plastic food containers – “Microwaving food in plastic is a mistake. Heat accelerates the release of microplastics into your food. Use glass, stainless steel, or ceramic whenever possible.”
  3. Eat whole, unprocessed foods – “Highly processed foods often have more microplastic contamination from packaging and industrial processing. Fresh produce and homemade meals are safer.”
  4. Be mindful of seafood consumption – “Fish and shellfish, especially those that feed near the ocean surface, are loaded with microplastics. If you eat seafood, choose wisely, and don’t overdo it.”
  5. Choose natural fabrics – “Polyester and synthetic fibers shed microplastics when washed. Wear cotton, wool, or linen instead. If you must use synthetics, wash them in a special filter bag.”
  6. Reduce overall plastic use – “Less plastic in your life means less chance for exposure. Avoid plastic cutlery, straws, and cheap plastic kitchenware.”
  7. Vacuum and dust regularly – “Microplastics settle in household dust. A clean home is a healthier home. Trust me, I’ve treated too many respiratory issues to ignore this.”

Dr. Kovač leans forward, his gaze intense. “These are small steps, but they add up. In medicine, we always talk about risk reduction—this is no different. Take control where you can. Your body will thank you.”

He sighs, then offers a small, weary smile. “And if all else fails… move to a remote Croatian island. But even there, the plastics wash up on shore. We have nowhere to run. So, we fight.”

Dr. Kovac on Healing Tourette Syndrome Naturally

“Modern medicine often seeks to suppress symptoms with pharmaceuticals, but true healing lies in addressing the root causes. Tourette Syndrome, like many neurological disorders, is deeply connected to nutrient deficiencies, gut health, and inflammation. By restoring balance to the body, we can ease symptoms and support overall well-being.”

Key Nutrients for Managing Tourette Syndrome

✅ Magnesium – Known as nature’s relaxant, magnesium helps calm the nervous system, reducing tics and muscle spasms. Many with Tourette’s are deficient in magnesium due to stress and poor dietary intake. Best sources: Magnesium glycinate, leafy greens, nuts, seeds.

✅ B-Complex Vitamins – These are critical for brain function and neurotransmitter regulation. B6, B12, and folate, in particular, help with dopamine metabolism, which can ease hyperactivity and impulsivity. Best sources: Whole grains, eggs, dairy, and supplementation if needed.

✅ Probiotics (Sauerkraut, Kimchi, Kefir) – Gut health is directly linked to brain health. A healthy microbiome reduces inflammation and stabilizes mood and neurological function. Fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, and kefir provide the probiotics needed to repair gut integrity and support neurotransmitter production.

✅ Omega-3 Fatty Acids – These essential fats reduce inflammation and support brain health, improving focus and reducing the severity of tics. Best sources: Wild-caught salmon, flaxseeds, walnuts, and high-quality fish oil supplements.

Dr. Kovac’s Final Thoughts:

“Tourette Syndrome should not be seen as a life sentence, but as a condition that can be managed—and in many cases, greatly improved—through nutrition, gut health, and targeted supplementation. Instead of merely suppressing symptoms with pharmaceuticals, let’s give the body what it truly needs to heal.”
