Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch.
Bring to a boil, then turn off heat, cover, and let sit for 9–12 minutes.
Transfer to an ice bath to cool, then peel carefully.
2. Prepare the Filling
Slice eggs in half lengthwise and scoop yolks into a bowl.
Mash yolks with a fork, then mix in mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
3. Fill the Egg Whites
Pipe the filling using a piping bag (or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off) for a polished look, or spoon it in for a rustic touch.
4. Garnish & Serve
Dust with paprika and sprinkle with chives.
Add optional toppings like bacon or hot sauce.
Chill before serving for the best flavor.
Why This Recipe Works
Mayonnaise creates a luxuriously creamy texture.
Dijon mustard adds a subtle tangy kick.
Vinegar or lemon juice brightens the flavor.
Delicious Variations
