Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Chives (finely chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil (optional, for garnish)
- 1 cup Smoked wood chips (for smoking eggs)
Instructions
Start by smoking the eggs: Preheat your smoker to 225°F (110°C). Place your washed and dried eggs directly on the grates or in an egg holder designed for smokers.
Add the smoked wood chips to the smoker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Smoke the eggs for 20 minutes, then carefully remove them and let them cool completely at room temperature.
Once cooled, peel the smoked eggs. The smoke will have infused the shells and permeated the egg whites for a rich flavor.
Roughly chop the smoked eggs and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add mayonnaise, sour cream, smoked paprika, Dijon mustard, chopped chives, salt, and pepper.
Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the mixture until creamy but still slightly chunky (you can adjust the texture to preference).
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt, pepper, or smoked paprika.
Optionally, drizzle olive oil on top for garnish and add a few additional chopped chives.
Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with crackers, vegetable sticks, or warm bread slices.
