Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil the Eggs

    Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 12-14 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cool the Eggs

    After the time is up, transfer the eggs to an ice water bath to cool for about 5-10 minutes. This will make peeling easier.

Making the Filling

  1. 3

    Prepare the Eggs

    Once the eggs are cool, gently tap them on a hard surface to crack the shells. Peel the eggs under running water to help remove the shells easily.

  2. 4

    Cut and Mix

    Slice the peeled eggs in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, truffle oil, grated pecorino cheese, salt, and pepper to the yolks. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Fill the Egg Whites

    Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill the egg white halves with the yolk mixture.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the crumbled crispy prosciutto and finely chopped chives on top of the filled eggs.
