Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon paprika (for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a single layer in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water, ensuring there is about 1 inch of water above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan with a lid, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.
After 12 minutes, carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
Peel the cooled eggs by gently tapping them against a hard surface to crack the shells, then rolling them gently between your hands. Start peeling from the wider end where the air pocket is located.
Slice each peeled egg in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the yolks into a medium bowl. Place the egg whites on a serving platter, cut side up.
Using a fork, mash the yolks into a fine crumble. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper to the yolks. Mix until the filling is smooth and creamy.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves, dividing it evenly among them.
Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the top of each deviled egg for garnish.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate the deviled eggs in an airtight container for up to 2 days before serving.
