Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Large eggs
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Sweet pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon White vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground 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 cover them with water until it is about 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan, remove it from the heat, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for at least 5 minutes. This will make the eggs easier to peel.
Once cooled, carefully peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving platter.
Mash the yolks with a fork until they are crumbled. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sweet pickle relish, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the yolks. Mix until the filling is smooth and creamy.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the hollowed-out egg whites, filling each evenly.
Lightly dust the tops of the filled eggs with paprika, and optionally garnish with finely chopped chives.
Refrigerate the deviled eggs for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled and enjoy!
