Classic Deviled Eggs
🛒 Ingredients
- 6 Large eggs (hard-boiled and peeled) 🥚
- 3 tbsp Mayonnaise (for that signature creaminess)
- 1 tsp Yellow mustard 🌭
- 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar (or pickle juice for an extra kick!)
- 1/8 tsp Salt 🧂
- 1/8 tsp Black pepper
- Garnish: Paprika and fresh chives 🌿
👩🍳 Instructions
- Slice: Cut the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise. 🔪
- Separate: Gently remove the yolks and place them in a small bowl. Set the whites aside on a serving plate.
- Mash: Use a fork to mash the yolks until they are fine and crumbly. 🥣
- Mix: Add the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper to the yolks. Mix until the filling is smooth and velvety.
- Fill: Spoon the mixture back into the egg white halves. (Pro Tip: Use a piping bag or a plastic bag with the corner cut off for a fancy look! 🎀)
- Decorate: Sprinkle with a dusting of paprika and top with finely chopped chives.
- Chill: For the best flavor, let them chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving. ❄️
🔥 Pro Tips:
- The Perfect Peel: For easier peeling, use eggs that have been in the fridge for a week, and shock them in an ice bath immediately after boiling! 🧊
- Extra Zest: Add a teaspoon of sweet pickle relish to the yolk mixture if you like a little extra crunch and sweetness. 🥒
