Eggs

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil the Eggs

    Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Cooking Time

    Once the water is boiling, cover the pan and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit for 12-14 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cool the Eggs

    Carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5-10 minutes. This will make peeling easier.

  4. 4

    Peel the Eggs

    Once cooled, gently tap the eggs on a hard surface and peel off the shells, rinsing under cold water if necessary.

Filling Preparation

  1. 5

    Slice the Eggs

    Cut the peeled eggs in half lengthwise and gently remove the yolks, placing them in a mixing bowl.

  2. 6

    Mix the Filling

    Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the yolks. Mash the mixture with a fork until smooth and creamy.

  3. 7

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the filling and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or mustard if desired.

  4. 8

    Fill the Egg Whites

    Using a spoon or piping bag, fill the hollowed egg whites with the yolk mixture.

  5. 9

    Garnish

    Sprinkle paprika on top of the filled eggs and garnish with chopped chives or parsley.
