Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a single layer at the bottom of a medium-sized saucepan. Cover the eggs with cold water, ensuring there is at least 1 inch of water above them.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water starts boiling, cover the saucepan with a lid, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.
Transfer the cooked eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for at least 5 minutes. This will make peeling easier.
Once cooled, peel the eggs carefully and slice them in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them into a mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving platter.
Using a fork, mash the yolks until they are smooth and crumbly. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste, if needed.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the hollow centers of the egg whites using a small spoon or a piping bag for a neater presentation.
Sprinkle the filled deviled eggs with paprika and garnish with chopped chives, if desired.
Cover and refrigerate the eggs for at least 10 minutes to chill before serving. Enjoy your Divine Deviled Eggs!
