Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1.5 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoons kosher salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 0.5 teaspoons truffle oil (optional)
- 2 strips crispy bacon, crumbled (optional)
- 1 tablespoon caviar (optional)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a single layer in a large saucepan and cover them with cold water until there is about 1 inch of water above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat, cover it, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
Carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for 10 minutes.
Peel the eggs under cold running water. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and gently remove the yolks, placing them in a bowl. Arrange the empty egg whites on a serving platter.
Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and truffle oil (if using). Mix until fully combined and creamy.
Transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag fitted with a star tip or use a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off. Pipe the filling evenly into the empty egg white halves.
Garnish the eggs with finely chopped chives. For added luxury, sprinkle crispy bacon crumbles on top or place a small dollop of caviar on each egg.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
