Equipment

  • pot
  • Bowl
  • Fork
  • spoon
  • piping bag

Ingredients

For the Filling

  • 6 large eggs fresh, easy peeling
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard or spicy brown mustard
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise your favorite brand

For Topping

  • 1 teaspoon paprika for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons chives chopped, optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Place fresh eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let them sit covered for 10-12 minutes for perfectly cooked yolks.
  • Carefully transfer the boiled eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them sit for 5-10 minutes. This helps them cool down and makes peeling easier.
  • Once cooled, halve the eggs lengthwise and gently scoop the yolks into a bowl.
  • Mash the yolks with a fork, then mix in Dijon mustard and mayonnaise until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt or pepper.
  • Generously spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.
  • Sprinkle paprika on top for added flair and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

Optional: Add crispy bacon bits on top before serving for additional flavor.
