Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients

  

• 8 pieces large eggs fresh, for boiling
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise for creaminess
• 1 teaspoon yellow mustard adds tang
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika for color and flavor
• to taste salt and black pepper seasoning
• 1 pinch paprika for garnish

Equipment

• Saucepan
• Mixing Bowl
• Whisk
• Piping bag or spoon
• Knife
• Cutting Board

Method

 

1. Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 9-12 minutes. Then, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely.
   
2. Peel the cooled eggs carefully, revealing smooth, intact whites. Slice each egg in half lengthwise using a sharp knife, and gently scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl. Set the whites aside on a serving platter.
   
3. Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, mustard, a pinch of salt and pepper, and half of the paprika. Mix thoroughly until the filling is creamy and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
   
4. Transfer the yolk mixture into a piping bag fitted with a star tip or use a spoon to fill each egg white cavity generously. For a decorative touch, pipe or spoon the filling neatly into each half.
   
5. Arrange the filled eggs on a serving platter. Garnish with a light sprinkle of paprika on top of each filled egg for color. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
   

See? That was quick, easy, and seriously addictive! For an extra pop of flavor, try sprinkling some paprika or chopped chives on top before serving.
