Place two large eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let the eggs simmer for 9-10 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the eggs to an ice water bath to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and set them aside.
Finely mince the shallot and chop the parsley. Set them aside for later use.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard and red wine vinegar until well combined.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuously whisking to create a smooth emulsion.
Grate the peeled hard-boiled eggs using the fine side of a box grater, and add them to the vinaigrette mixture. Gently stir until the eggs are fully incorporated.
Fold in the minced shallot and chopped parsley, then season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well.
Serve immediately over a crisp salad, steamed green beans, or roasted vegetables. This dressing can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
