Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoons white vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoons chives (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoons sweet pickle relish (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons smoked paprika (for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a single layer in a medium-sized saucepan. Cover them completely with cold water, ensuring the water is at least 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 12 minutes.
Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Allow the eggs to cool for at least 5 minutes.
Carefully peel the shells off the eggs, being mindful not to damage the whites.
Using a sharp knife, slice each egg in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a medium mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving platter, cut sides up.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until they reach a fine, crumbly texture.
Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, paprika, salt, black pepper, and pickle relish (if using) to the yolks. Mix until the filling is smooth and creamy.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if needed (add a pinch more salt or pepper, depending on your preference).
Spoon the filling evenly into the egg white halves, or use a piping bag with a star tip for a decorative touch.
Sprinkle the filled eggs with smoked paprika and garnish with chopped chives.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 6 hours before serving. Enjoy the best deviled eggs ever!
