Watch it come together

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Paprika, for garnish
  • Fresh chives, chopped (optional)

Method

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

    Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove the saucepan from the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    After 10 minutes, carefully drain the hot water from the saucepan and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Let the eggs cool completely.

  4. 4

    Once the eggs are cool, gently tap them on a hard surface to crack the shell. Peel off the shells and discard.

  5. 5

    Cut each egg in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks, placing them in a separate bowl.

  6. 6

    Mash the egg yolks with a fork until they are crumbly.

  7. 7

    Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the mashed egg yolks. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

  8. 8

    Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the hollowed-out egg white halves.

  9. 9

    Sprinkle the Deviled Eggs with paprika for garnish and, if desired, sprinkle some fresh chopped chives on top for added flavor and presentation.

  10. 10

    Arrange the Deviled Eggs on a serving platter and refrigerate until ready to serve.
