Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- 0.5 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 in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with water, about 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pan, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
While the eggs cook, prepare an ice water bath in a large bowl. After the 10 minutes are up, transfer the eggs to the ice water to cool for at least 5 minutes.
Carefully peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a medium bowl, setting the egg whites aside on a platter.
Mash the yolks with a fork until they are crumbly and smooth. Add mayonnaise, yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper, mixing until the consistency is creamy and well-combined.
Spoon the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves, or use a piping bag with a star tip for a more decorative look.
Sprinkle the filled eggs with paprika and, if desired, garnish with freshly chopped chives for extra flavor and presentation.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate the deviled eggs for up to 4 hours before serving for enhanced flavor.
