Description

Classic deviled eggs with a twist of flavor, perfect for gatherings and snacks.


Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • Salt, to taste
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • Paprika, for garnish
  • Chives or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, cover and let sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Ice Bath: Transfer the eggs to an ice bath for around 10 minutes to cool.
  3. Peel the Eggs: Gently tap the eggs on a hard surface and roll them. Peel from the wider end and rinse under cold water if needed.
  4. Prepare the Filling: Slice each egg in half, scoop out the yolks into a bowl, and mash with a fork. Add mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper; mix until smooth.
  5. Fill the Egg Whites: Fill the white halves with the yolk mixture, aiming for a generous mound.
  6. Garnish: Sprinkle paprika over the filled eggs and add chopped herbs if desired. Serve immediately!

Notes

For a lighter version, swap mayonnaise for Greek yogurt. Use eggs that are at least a week old for easier peeling.
