Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a single layer in a large saucepan and fill with enough water to cover the eggs by at least 1 inch.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then cover the saucepan with a lid, remove from heat, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
Peel the eggs carefully under running water to remove the shells. Slice each egg in half lengthwise.
Gently scoop out the yolks into a medium-sized mixing bowl and place the egg whites on a serving platter.
Mash the yolks with a fork until fine and crumbly. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper, then mix until smooth and creamy.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed egg whites. Use a piping bag with a star tip for a decorative touch, if desired.
Sprinkle the tops with paprika for a pop of color and flavor. Garnish with chopped chives if using.
Chill the eggs in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve cold and enjoy!
