Description
Classic Deviled Eggs are a beloved appetizer that is easy to make and perfect for any occasion. Their creamy, tangy flavor delights everyone and they look visually appealing with a sprinkle of paprika.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Paprika for garnish
Instructions
- Boil the eggs by placing them in a pot and covering them with water, about an inch above the eggs. Bring to a rolling boil, then cover and let them sit off heat for 12 minutes.
- Cool the eggs in an ice bath for 5-10 minutes for easier peeling.
- Peel the eggs by tapping them gently to crack the shell, rolling to loosen, and peeling from the wide end.
- Prepare the filling by slicing each egg in half, removing the yolks, and mashing them with mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture using a spoon or piping bag.
- Garnish the filled eggs with paprika before serving.
Notes
For easier peeling, use eggs that are a week or two old. For perfect boiling, consider steaming instead of boiling.
